What We Do

Exposure

We provide accessible platforms for emerging and underserved artists, including affordable art shows in underserved areas and global exhibitions. By collaborating with other artists, galleries, and organizations, we help artists share their work widely and amplify Hawaii's unique creative voice.

Professional Development

Through workshops, retreats, and mentorship programs, we equip artists with the skills and knowledge to navigate the art world. Sessions cover professional development, business skills, intellectual property, and practical tools like legal templates—empowering artists to grow and thrive.

Community Support

We build a strong, connected creative community in Hawaiʻi by providing grants, facilitating mentorships, and hosting networking events. Through partnerships with nonprofits and cultural groups, we foster collaboration, knowledge sharing, and long-term support for artists.
