The Hawai‘i State Art Museum is dedicated to presenting the largest and finest collection of works by Hawai‘i artists that celebrate the diverse artistic and cultural legacy of Hawai‘i. The museum features visionary artwork from the Art in Public Places Collection, which includes over 5,000 works of art by more than 1,400 artists that have been acquired since the collection began in 1967. This artwork is recognized as one of the most significant collections of late 20th and early 21st century art in Hawai‘i. The collection is administered by the Hawai‘i State Foundation on Culture and the Arts.
