Young of Heart Workshop

The Young of Heart Workshop will collaborate with the University of Hawaii to implement a project to create broader access to the work of Native Hawaiian artists. The Ai Phaku project will disperse artist exhibitions across three campuses and five venues within the University of Hawaii System, including The John Young Museum of Art, the Art Gallery, and the Commons Gallery at UH Mānoa and at Gallery ‘Iolani at Windward Community College and Koa Gallery at Kapi‘olani Community College. The series of exhibits will be accompanied by public programming and a comprehensive publication with archival images, historical and newly commissioned essays, artist and artwork information and installation images. The project will serve over 27,000 students, including approximately 5,400 Hawaiian students and will also bring over a thousand other visitors to the campuses.
