Sizzling First Fridays at the Hawai‘i State Art Museum

Please come and experience First Friday at the Hawai‘i State Art Museum on November 2, 2012 from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m.. The month of November features Castle High School Performing Arts Center with excerpts from their upcoming “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens, complemented by Castle Danceforce doing select numbers from their November dance concert “Movement 3.”

The Castle Performing Arts Center has been entertaining audiences and educating students for almost 50 years now. CPAC and Castle DanceForce produce six full shows each year featuring everything from Shakespeare to Broadway musicals. Under the direction of Karen Meyer, CPAC was the first public school to represent Hawai‘i at the prestigious Edinburgh Fringe Theatre Festival and be recognized by the White House as one of the top afterschool arts programs in the nation.

Can’t get enough of these talented students? From November 16 to 18, Castle DanceForce will present their dance concert “Movement 3” featuring over one hundred students. Then on November 30th, CPAC presents Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” starring students from eight different schools on O‘ahu.

Galleries are open from 6 to 8:45 p.m. on First Friday. As the museum's supply of chairs are limited, low folding chairs and mats are recommended at the second floor open courtyard, which overlooks the newly opened Sculpture Garden. Don't miss this special treat
