It’s about time a Luau gets down in the Old Pueblo.
The Pan Asian Community Alliance is throwing a Tropical Island Escape Luau at the St. Frances Cabrini Church Hall at 5 p.m. on Saturday, September 14.
You’re urged to get decked out in your favorite Hawaiian or tropical attire and eat up the delicious feast provided by Island Plate Lunch.
Avoiding any awkward dads attempting to dance the hula isn’t guaranteed.
However, on top of the scrumptious plates of Hawaiian food there are going to be performances by Hula Mai Ka Pu uwai, Siva Maia Polynesian Dancers, and the Sounds of Thunder Korean Drummers.
Tickets are $35 for adults and $15 for kids. You can get more information on the ticket pricing by calling (520) 512-0144.
Proceeds will go towards buying new computers for the Pan Asian Community Alliance’s computer lab.
The St. Frances Cabrini Church Hall is located at 3201 E. Presidio Rd. For more information, visit the Pan Asian Community Alliance’s Facebook event page.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
