Shoppers in Hawaii wait for admission to Costco, clumped and in winding lines. Staff accepted a group of customers for every group that exited, minimizing panicked shopping and the potential spreading of the coronavirus. However, Costco lines, unlike those outside of stores like Whole Foods, do not have social distancing precautions. Honolulu reached 343 confirmed COVID-19 cases and 5 deaths by April 10.

Clara Wu (12) created this poster for Mr. Moshers Computer Art class during this period of social distancing and online learning. Students were told to look up work by the artist Shepard Fairey for inspiration. I thought of vintage propaganda posters so I searched for those, Wu said. I came across posters that had a color theme and used stripes to lead my eye to the focal point of the pieces. I thought to do something relevant to what is happening now and used the related colors of the American flag. Art courtesy of Clara Wu 2020.

In the background, two Mililani coaches yell shots to their school’s wrestler, watching him drive his opponent for a pin. The Kalani Falcons hosted this season’s first wrestling tournament. Thirty-one Falcons participated: 17 junior varsity players and 14 varsity players. For this Round Robin tournament, wrestlers competed in three rounds per match. High schools participating in the competitions take turns hosting the winter sport’s nearly weekly Saturday events. If you’re interested in supporting Kalani’s wrestling team, visit the school’s athletics website for the tournament schedule. Photo & caption by Saara Nicole Chadwick.
