Aloha SCBWI! Our new Illustrator Coordinator Gael Abary an I had a meet up to talk about events and things that we would like to do for the illustrators in Hawaii. It felt almost normal (prepandemic) to chat over lunch at Morning Brew in Kailua. — with Gael Abary at Morning Brew.

[SCBWI Hawaii @SCBWIHawaii]

We enjoyed our first in person celebration this weekend. We welcome Gael Abary as our new IC and send many well wishes to Mirka Hokkanen on her journey to Korea. We look forward to Gael’s fresh ideas for our illustrators and thank Mirka for all that she has done for our chapter.
