TEMARI’s
kid stuff

Kids usually end up tugging on their parents' sleeves, anxious to end shopping trips. This year, TEMARI's 18th Trash and Treasure Fair offers a place just for kids to shop, with "elves" on duty to help them wrap and tag their purchases of bead bracelets, cards, tea towels and other gifts made by the same 47 artists -- including weavers, clothing designers, textile, clay and paper artists -- invited to show their work for adults.

Items for kids ages 5 to 12 to buy for friends or aunties will be priced from $3 to $9.

Another special feature of the sale this year will be the sale of vintage handpainted and handlettered samurai posters of the '40s and '50s. These were posted at theaters, such as Toyo, which featured the popular Japanese dramas.

And look for some of the best "trash" in town, unsold inventory, supplies and remnants donated by teachers at TEMARI, Center for Asian and Pacific Arts.

The sale runs 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday at the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawaii, 2454 S. Beretania St. Kid-only store hours are 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Admission is free. Call 735-1860 for more information.

Modeling world gathers

The first Hawaii 2000 Modeling Convention taking place 3 to 7 p.m. Saturday at Pipeline Cafe has long been a dream for photographer Mo Martinez.

"I'm originally from here, but I moved to the mainland to work. I'd been attending other modeling conventions on the mainland over the years and wanted to bring back something positive to help the modeling and fashion industry here."

The event offers model hopefuls the opportunity to meet and mingle with representatives from modeling and talent agencies, photographers and fashion vendors.

Admission is $8. Pipeline Cafe is at 805 Pohukaina St. Call Zenitram Productions at 487-2940 for more information.
