Your ongoing support is the life blood of what we do

Our signature event, the Hawai‘i Triennial, is the state’s largest, periodic exhibition of contemporary art from Hawai‘i, the Pacific, and beyond. After three successful iterations, we exhibited work from 122 artists and art collectives from around the world and welcomed more than 312,600 visitors at 22 sites of exhibition. In addition to years-long planning that goes into the Triennial, we present Art Summit (a convening of artists, curators, and thinkers), Professional Development Program for Artists, Young Contemporaries (professional development for high school art students), and year-round public programming (artist talks, screenings, and more).

As a not-for-profit visual arts organization, Hawai‘i Contemporary relies on the support and engagement of our community. Your contributions are vital to sustaining the work we do year-round. Through your generous support, we’ll grow a vibrant and accessible visual arts community in Hawai‘i, month after month.
