How to Make an Origami Aloha Shirt!
The charming and delightful Cherry Capri is a girl of many talents. She
a featured singer with the Thurston Howlies and has sang onstage with
King Kukulele and Mai Kai Gents dazzling audiences with her voluptuous
vocal renditions of classics such as "Pineapple Princess." Miss Capri is
also a Modern Hostess, a cross between Martha Stewart and Pee Wee
Herman. And her matchbook inspired paintings have been exhibited in
L.A., Palm Springs and Las Vegas. This year at Tiki Oasis she will be
conducting a quick class on how to make an origami Aloha Shirt! So bring
your nimble fingers along...

No experience necessary. Paper will be supplied!
In The Reef bar patio area, Saturday at 3 pm,
