Artist Opportunites

Part of our mission is to support artists both on Hawaiʻi Island and across the pae ʻāīna of Hawaiʻi. We offer open artist calls for a variety of shows throughout the year. All artist calls are hosted on the Call for Entry platform and are managed by the non-profit Hawaiʻi Island Art Alliance. Scroll down for more information on calls that are open now and other upcoming artist opportunities.

15th Annual Abstract Only!

Registration Due: July 1

Abstract Only is a little different this year due to an exciting exchange with the Shanghai Abstract Artists' Association. 

The 15th Annual exhibit will display accepted Hawaiʻi artists along side invited artists from the Shanghai Abstract Artists' Association. Accepted Abstract Only artists will also be eligible to have their works displayed in an exhibit in Shanghai in December 2025.

Due to the exchange and limited gallery space this year's Abstract Only is only open to Hawaiʻi artists and kamaʻāina.
