One of Honolulu's hidden gems, this small gallery hosts free exhibits and events showcasing various art forms by Pasifika creators. With the Festival of the Pacific being hosted in Honolulu this year, you can expect to see some fantastic exhibits coming up! The most recent exhibit I caught was Storyboards of Palau, featuring wood carvings from various artists of that Pacific Island nation. I knew of the storyboards from the few I saw on Guam, but this exhibit taught me how the art form evolved over the decades, from simple carvings to more ornate works that eventually eschewed painted boards for all wood. The gallery also offers family activities to go along with the exhibit, and on the last day you could make notecards and kids cardboard "necklaces" with stamps featuring the stylizations on the boards.The exhibits are thoughtfully curated and such a great extension of the work being done by EWC. If you've never gone, check out the website for the next exhibit and plan to go!Parking: There's a visitor lot near the Kennedy Theater that's free on Sundays - it's the first left after you pass the East West Center!

Found a cool art gallery here on campus not far from the Young gallery also on campus. Once I saw an exhibit on clothing using the influences of China and Iran. I saw traditional Chinese style dresses but the embroidery showed scenes of Iran. Beautiful clothing!!!!! I could only peek in the window with the British Colunbia exhibit but art always receives 5 stars from me
