Four Seasons Resort Maui Announces “Showcase Under the Stars” Fine Art Auction

Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea has announced the return of the Showcase Under the Stars, set for Friday, November 25, 2022, from 5:00 to 10:00 pm, held in the Resort’s Ballroom and Ballroom Foyer. The fine art auction is part of the Forbes Five-Star Resort’s annual Day of Hope fundraising efforts, with proceeds benefitting Pacific Cancer Foundation, Kapi‘olani Medical Center for Women & Children, and the American Cancer Society’s Hope Lodge. 

Attendees will bid on a selection of fine art procured by art consultant Rose Potter, Executive Director of Hawaii Contemporary. The selection will contain pieces by notable artists from the Resort’s museum-quality permanent collection including Jun Kaneko, Joyce Kozloff, Gregg Kaplan, and Charles Cohan. Past and present artists from the Resort’s popular daily Artists Showcase have also contributed to the cause, including Lori Koprowski, Larry Berko, Galit Breman, Cesere Brothers, and more.

Art enthusiasts can begin early bidding virtually via Bidding For Good on November 10, 2022, where they will also find luxury hotel and resort stays, sporting event tickets, memorabilia and more.

For those who would like to personally peruse the art before the auction, an Art Preview will be held Tuesday, November 22, and Wednesday, November 23, 2022, from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm. As a special addition, there will be a Floral Auction running simultaneously to the Art Preview, and the winning bidder will walk away with a gorgeous floral centrepiece to enjoy at their Thanksgiving table. Bidding for the floral arrangements will close at 5:00 pm on Wednesday, November 23, 2022.

“We are thrilled to invite our community to the Resort this holiday season for this special opportunity to support those battling cancer right here in Hawaii,” says Four Seasons Resort General Manager Ben Shank. “We have long supported promoting the arts, and look forward to shining a light on many talented local artists as we come together for this common cause at an unforgettable evening under the stars.”
