HMA is delighted to have this opportunity to partner with the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa Museum Studies Graduate Certificate Program and East-West Center Arts Program, with support from the Hawaiʻi Community Foundation.

The theme selected for this one-day conference is Decolonization – Indigenization – Collaboration. Join us in Oʻahu on Saturday, March 25 as we gather in person for this critical program at East-West Center’s Imin Conference Center.

This will be a hybrid event, in-person and via ZOOM.
