Picks of the Week 4
The Great Napkin Doodle
Sunday (June 6), South Shore Tiki Lounge, Kihei, 8pm

June 02, 2010 | 05:23 PM The napkin. Its uses are as multifarious as its ply. More than lipstick blotter, quicker picker upper, makeshift bib (gross) or bar fly's little black book, it's the art world's hippest new substrate. "Richest living artist" Damien Hirst added to his net worth by selling a skull sketch on lunchtime linen for a whopping $37,000, and the coffee house variety took author J.K. Rowling from too-poor-for-paper to almost Oprah. On bar stock is where MauiTime's editor hypothesizes every Ron Pitts' Eh Brah! illustration begins (and sometimes ends). And those, we know, are priceless. But for as little as $20, you can be the proud owner of a masterwork from The Great Napkin Doodle, a benefit for the non-profit Keiki Cupboard. This local organization "believe[s] that no child attending school should lack the basic needs for successful integration into their academic environment," and the fine folks from South Shore Tiki Lounge—partnering with Indigo Paia and Maui Thing—are leading the charge to support the cause. Selected works from 25 artists will be displayed at the lounge and online through July, but opening night is the right night, with music by Kanoa. 874-6444, www.southshoretikilounge.com
