We are a non profit organization dedicated to the power of cooperation and collaboration amongst artists, arts organizations, and educators with the goal of creatively facing the challenges of the future together.
Our premier event is the Annual Collab! gathering. This event was conceived as a gathering place where kupuna and master artists can recharge and reinvigorate their work through a sharing of knowledge and skills. Hawaiian meets international and contemporary artists from as many as 14 different media, and the results of 4 days of making together are available at an auction following the event. Artists leave Collab with new energy and connections to take back into their own communities where the next generation can benefit from the recharged teachers.
Unlock new skills, ignite your imagination.
Submit an Artist Application to get started on your collaboration journey.
