Aloha Artisans and Crafters

Island artistry is on full display three times a week in the Maile Tower lobby when we welcome more than a dozen local artisans and crafters and their handmade products. What’s really special about this free activity is that artisans are here to personally demonstrate their art forms. Among the local gems available to purchase are woodcarvings, bowls, pens, soaps, clothes, wallets and handmade jewelry.

Also, while the artisans and crafters are here, you can sign up to learn how to make an authentic craft. At 10:30 a.m. and noon, join a local artist to make a unique item like a coconut bird, lei or tattoo picture. It’s a great way to learn more about the artistic traditions of the Hawaiian people and find something special to take home.
