Arts Education

The Artists in the Schools (AITS) program for State of Hawai‘i Department of Education (DOE) schools, grades K-12, is currently open for school applications. All Hawai‘i public and charter schools are eligible to apply. The deadline is Monday, April 20, 2020. AITS arts residency grants provide engaging, creative and fun learning experiences based on the Fine Arts standards for all grade levels, through residencies with qualified trained teaching artists from the Artistic Teaching Partners (ATP) Roster. Many of these teaching artists integrate their art form with other core curriculum areas, such as language arts, math, social studies, and science, meeting both Fine Arts and other core standards.

For more information: Artists in the Schools.

The Art Bento museum education program for O‘ahu public and charter elementary schools (grades 2-6) is also open for school applications through Friday, March 6, 2020.
The Art Bento Program at the Hawaiʻi State Art Museum (HiSAM) is a museum education program of the Hawai‘i State Art Museum serving O‘ahu Department of Education elementary students, Grades 2 – 6, and their teachers. This four-part inquiry-based program actively engages students and teachers through activities connected to current arts standards and ELA Common Core Standards.
This unique multi-disciplinary educational opportunity emphasizes arts and visual literacy and is led by qualified teaching artists from the Hawai‘i State Foundation on Culture and the Arts' Artistic Teaching Partners roster. There is no cost to schools to participate in the program and funds for bus transportation are also provided.

For more information: Art Bento.
O‘ahu elementary schools can have both Artists and the Schools and Art Bento in the same year.

Student Art Exhibit

The State Foundation on Culture and the Arts invites you to the 57th Annual Hawaiʻi Regional Scholastic Art Awards exhibit at the Hawaiʻi State Art Museum.

Diamond Head Gallery (Second Floor)
Saturday February 15 - Saturday March 14, 2020
Free admission

Featuring award-winning artworks by Hawaii students, grades 7-12. A full list of students receiving awards is on the SFCA website: 2020 Hawaii Regional Scholastic Art Award Recipients.

“Creating art does more than just give the viewer something interesting to look at,” says Jonathan Johnson, Executive Director of the State Foundation on Culture and the Arts. “Engagement in the artistic process fosters creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, and communication, often referred to as ‘21st century skills.’ Students who create art are expressing themselves and gaining an understanding of who they truly are. Having the Hawaiʻi Regional Scholastic Art Awards exhibit at the Hawaiʻi State Art Museum helps the SFCA carry out its mission to promote, perpetuate, and preserve culture and the arts in Hawaiʻi."

Poetry Out Loud

Poetry Out Loud Hawaii State Finals: March 1, 2020 at Tenney Theatre, Cathedral of St. Andrew (Honolulu)

Karen Tiller Polivka: Artist, philanthropist, mom
“Hawai‘i has such as rich history of musical storytelling. Beyond the words we speak, music inserts emotion into a sentence and allows us to find common ground. It’s universal that way, and essential to building a healthy community.” – Karen Tiller Polivka
Polivka’s commitment is no small order. Beyond her involvement with HOT, she’s a governor-appointed commissioner for the State Foundation on Culture and the Arts, where she makes sure all children have access to arts programming. “Art has a way of opening doors,” she explains.
