First Saturday – April 6th – Special Appearance by Illustrator Tammy Yee *EARLY ENTRY*

On April 6th from 9am to 4pm, we’re thrilled to offer FREE admission for Kama’āina (ID required).

Tammy Yee (Children’s book author, illustrator, and origami / paper model designer) has worked on more than 40 books. She grew up in Hilo, Hawaii, where she explored tide pools, swam in streams, and wrote and illustrated spooky stories her teachers politely read. Having children rekindled her love for picture books, so in 1994 she exchanged her stethoscope for a paintbrush and she’s been writing and illustrating ever since. In 2022, she was inducted into Children’s Literature of Hawaii’s (CLH) Hall of Fame. 

Tammy Yee 📘🎨 will be available for book signing and talk story from 10am – Noon. You can visit her website here
