Hundreds of people took advantage of the Senior Food and Craft Fair Saturday.
Shoppers at the Kauai War Memorial Convention Hall were treated to a variety of handicrafts and food from kupuna from the different senior centers around the island.
“Some of these seniors work on projects the entire year,” said Melanie Okamoto, the county’s senior coordinator. “We sent several people to Oahu this summer to learn new items the kupuna can work on.”
Following the return of these delegates, classes were held at the senior centers to transfer the knowledge on to the kupuna.
A variety of music and cultural dances was provided by the seniors, too.
