Tis the season to go walking in a Tiki Wonderland!

Tonga Hut's 9th annual TIKI WONDERLAND is happening SUNDAY, DECEMBER 7th.

Festivities start at 2pm with an Art Show and Outdoor Vending. When the sun goes down, the lights go up, and the parking lot is transformed into a magical holiday Wonderland... We tried lighting up the lot for the first time last year, and it proved quite popular, so we're doing it again this year!

High Tide perform the Ventures' Christmas Album indoors starting at 6pm.

DJ Big TIki Dude will be spinning holiday tunes and Durango Tacos (AKA the "Taco Lady") will be serving up the eats!

Vendors so far include:

How can I come play in No.ho-ho on sunday the 7th and still expect to not be completely exausted after the Palm Springs parade(the 6th)? to see the 'tonga hut' float and 'party-harty!'(do people still say that?)and live to tell about all of it after that LOOOOOONNGG drive? What's wrong with doing it on the 14th? ---Besides, who's gonna have money to spend after Don's ITMP? hmmmm-- sounds like a small turn out this year :( :( ---- ALOHA!

Looking forward to vending at the Tonga Hut's TIKI WONDERLAND.
No charge for vendors means great deals for the shoppers.

I will have some carved tikis, classic vinyl, a few no-string tiki pendants, tiki fabrics,
retro tchotchkes, and plenty of lamps to light up the night.

Hope to see you all there.

Aloha everybody!

Haven't had much time to post stuff, but here's some pieces I'll have at Tiki Wonderland IX:

A new holiday painting, priced to move! Plus, I took the image and had postcards made. I'll have sets of 20 postcards for $5 available at my booth!

I'll also have the concept art for Tonga Hut Palm Spring's entry in this year in Palm Springs Festival of Lights, all framed up and ready to impress!

Thanks fer lookin'!
