Excited to attend the training for volunteers today on the special Georgia O'Keeffe: Visions of Hawaiʻi show starting at the New York Botanical Garden - Members-Only Preview Friday 5/18. Show Saturday 5/19/18-10/28/18.
Flowers of Hawai'i in the Conservatory is paired with more than 15 O'Keeffe Hawaiian paintings in the library.  P.S. Hawaii is  spelled with an okina ,also called a glottal stop, between the two i's. I had to get a Hawaiian keyboard on my Mac!
