Rosa Medina, 15, of Lahainaluna High School, has been selected as winner of the Maui County Sister Cities Foundation's 2007 Young Artist Showcase. Medina received a $300 check, and her artwork will represent Maui at the Sister Cities International Showcase of Young Artists in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

The theme was "Do we live in an open and accessible world for all?" Entries from some of Maui County's sister cities — Saipan in the Northern Marianas, China's Sanya Hainan Province and Quezon City and Manila in the Philippines — also will be sent to Florida for display.
