Lahaina Skate Park beautification and collaborative art project was organized by the County of Maui’s Parks and Recreations West District Supervisor Danae Marin and the Creative Director of Keep It Flowing LLC. Over the years the Lahaina Skate Park’s walls and tables have been vandalized and as a result re-painted over and over, so as a solution we decided to create a two phase beautification project. Within phase one of the project, the goal was to start the beautification process by painting artwork on all tables and benches. The Rotary Club of Lahaina, who played a huge role in making the skate park possible, began the rejuvenation process by repainting all surface areas damaged by vandals and cleaning up.
On Friday April 15, 2016 Lahaina Parks and Recreation organized “West District 2016 Skate Jam” and presented Keep it Flowing a Certificate of Appreciation for the table designing and youth mentorship. The community was invited to celebrate the completion of phase one of the beautification project. The celebration included a music, free food, skate competition, special dance performances and the Keep it Flowing’s artwork unveiling. Thank you to all County of Maui Parks and Recreations West staff, Rotary Club of Lahaina, Boy and Girls Club and the community for all your kōkua and guidance.
