Comments Off on Hawai’i Craftsmen Statewide Exhibition 2020 is on Display
DAC is extremely happy to announce the very first show in our new gallery upstairs! Come see this amazing show featuring the work of local artists working in many media including ceramics, glass, fiber, wood, and more!
This exhibition is free and open to the public. Gallery hours are Wednesday – Saturday, 11 – 6 and Sundays 1 – 4. This is a large and well ventilated space, but we require all visitors to wear a face mask and observe social distancing. Click here for directions and parking information.
As you might have seen on our Instagram, we are open! Please wear a face mask and feel free to come see what’s new! Here are a few photos of the work on the walls and on the pedestals at DAC Shop as of June 2020…
These are difficult times to be alone and because of all the uncertainty that surround us. There are many moments when it’s enough to just breathe.
We need to help ourselves and others to get out of the funk. My friends came up with the idea that we need to just make art for art’s sake.
We hope that you will join us and help make some community murals as part of our International Dot Day celebration and help reach out to others by sharing your creativity.
Please participate and invite your friends to play too.

Join our creative community. We are creating community murals and an exhibit for Honolulu’s International Dot Day celebration for all ages on or about September 15, 2020.
With all that is going on and the uncertainty of our world, now is the time to make art for art’s sake and to be part of something more than ourselves!
Start with a 3-inch circle on cardstock paper.
On side one, create intricate, crazy, awe-inspiring, or simple art.
On side two, respond to the question, “How would you offer kindness?”
Then write a simple positive and encouraging message for yourself or someone else.
Have FUN. Cut loose and unleash your inner creativity with as much passion as you can muster! Give yourself permission to go forward with abandon. Be amazed at what you have created. Create and BE Healthy.
As we continue to work on the upper level of DAC, the downstairs has become a curated art shop space with continually rotating pieces of art in many disciplines from a variety of local artists. Come check it out! (The displays in these photos have changed) There is always something new to see!
