About

For more than fifty years, the Art in Public Places Collection of the Hawaiʻi State Foundation on Culture and the Arts (SFCA) has been recognized as one of the most significant collections of contemporary art in Hawaiʻi.

The 51 new artworks acquired from juried and curated exhibitions offer an insight into current trends and themes in the local arts scene and provide an opportunity to see the diversity of works being created in Hawaiʻi today.
