Elizabeth Freeman, organizer of the annual Festival of Lights, is looking for recycled aluminum cans to create new ornaments for a nine-foot tall tree called “If Can, Can” that will be part of this year’s festival, according to a news release. About 200 colorful cans are needed for the project. All cans should be empty and not crushed.
“We’re looking for all the different colors of the Hawaiian Sun and Aloha Maid juice cans, bright red Coke cans, energy drink cans, green ginger ale cans, as well as Arizona Green Tea cans,” says Freeman in the release. “If an aluminum can is bright and colorful, we want it.”
Volunteer artisans will begin working on the ornaments in early November so Freeman is hoping to collect the aluminum cans by Nov. 7.
Drop-offs can be made at the County Recycling Office located at the Lihu’e Civic Center, Moikeha Building, Suite 295.
The opening ceremony for the 2012 Festival of Lights will begin at 6 p.m. on Dec. 7 at the Historic County Building.
The festival will be held every weekend through Dec. 24 from 6 to 8 p.m.
