Paving the way for Hawaii’s Creative Industries

Art and culture tell stories and connect the community to their sense of place. Learning about our past gives us ownership to take responsibility for the present and future.

Hawaii’s Creative Resource

Our mission is to serve Hawaii’s creative community by providing platforms for collaboration, learning, and cultural expression. Through innovative programming and transformative public art initiatives, we aim to enrich lives, revitalize communities, and inspire future generations of artists and creative thinkers.
