Ka'anapali Beach Resort is proud to host Na Mele O Maui, the illustrious student song competition that showcases some of the most talented and impressive youth voices on Maui.  The competition will be held Friday, December 3rd from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm, at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center. Na Mele O Maui is a heartwarming annual contest and is one of Hawaii's longest-running events which continues to perpetuate Hawaii's unique culture and heritage.  Hundreds of Maui County students from kindergarten through 12th grade compete prizes of cash and musical instruments.

Na Mele O Maui also sponsors the High School Art Competition, a juried exhibit open to all Maui County high school students. Entries are original creations, can be two- or three-dimensional, must be completed in school, and reflect the designated theme from the year's corresponding song competition. Winning artwork will be on display at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center.

A nominal donation will be requested at the door, with all profits going to the Na Mele O Maui, Inc. Scholarship Fund.  Scholarships of $1,000 each will be awarded to Maui County high school graduates pursuing higher education in fields relating to Hawaiian cultural arts and skills.
