Honolulu Academy Of Arts

The Honoluly Academy of Arts has a great selection of art and artifacts from around the world. Many of the works of art are historical in nature so it feels a lot like a museum. You could easily spend hours looking through each of the exhibits. There is always staff at hand to answer questions and the gift store carries a good range of books, shirts, and other artsy things. Parking can be a pain, so I would recommend taking the bus or walking. First Wednesday of every month is free.

The Honolulu Academy of Arts is really beautiful. This is one of the smaller museums on this island and their exhibits change every month. They show artwork from the island and around the world. They also have a small theatre where they show local independent movies. For children (and sometimes adults) there are hands on activities. The admission price is fair but they have free admission once a month as well.

This is a great place that carries a lot of international gallery shows. They display artwork and other museum treasures from around the world. The landscaping and the building are very beautiful and reflect Hawaii's beauty. I took an art class here in the summer and it was great!

The Academy, located on S. Beretania near Ward Avenue, has had some outstanding displays of its own and displays on loan from other facilities. While the food they offer is nothing special, this is a pleasant setting so stay awhile, relax, and enjoy yourself. Parking is limited!
