Hot Shops on Maui

[Shaun Graves]

I know how everyone loves to offer travel advice so here goes... My parents are headed to Maui and love glass. Are there any hot shops or galleries they might be able to visit?

Also, what are the "must do" activities for Maui?

Thanks,

Hot Island Glass in Makawao. Chris Lowry and Chris Richards, beautiful work and a nice studio/gallery. Perhaps one of the best examples of such in the whole world.

of buldings, mike orr has a nice hot shop,
I dont know if he is hot at the moment
but they tend to work in the morning,

screwed me .com guy, but I dont think his gallery is open, there is a market under the banyen (sp?) tree where another glass guy sells stuff,I think its on
sundays.......

At the resort just south of Kehei there is a large gallery selling high-end work. Lots of Chihully, Taiglipietra, etc.

Chris's place (mentioned above) is real treat. A hot shop so quiet that he works to classical music. Very clever equipment.

Chris and his partner Chris (thats business partner)
have the best gig going in the islands. Well worth the trip to Makawao, and really the best place for glass on the island. They are a couple of melow, low key guys that make great glass. Give a call for directions etc,
