The first thing to note about this museum is its architecture. It built. 928, is a national historical building. However, this museum contains art by contemporary Hawaiian artists. In the open gallery, there is a decent display of artworks, as well as detailed descriptions of works and artists. This is very good. When we visited the museum, there were also some winning works from high school students in the exhibition. The talents displayed by these students were amazing. One was not listed. At its location, there was a note that said the work was sent to New York for a national exhibition. It may take an hour or two to visit, but it was worth it. The cafe on the first floor of the museum was superb. Finally arrived early, there is a parking lot at the palace of Iolani. It is a road to the museum.
