American Textile History Museum - Exhibitions - Let’s Go Hawaiian! > Current Exhibitions > Past Exhibitions > Future Exhibitions January 31, 2004– June 20, 2004 Let’s Go Hawaiian! Hawaiian shirts (also known as Aloha shirts), have become the recognized symbol of this tropical paradise. The bold, colorful patterns illustrate the lifestyle, culture, flowers, foliage and heritage of the Hawaiian Islands. The American Textile History Museum presents a special exhibition, Let’s Go Hawaiian from January to June, 2004. It is a fanciful look at our fascination with Hawaii, its influence on mainstream culture, and a lighthearted exploration of the cult of the Hawaiian shirt. The exhibit tells the story of our enchantment with Waikiki through the exhibition of over 150 shirts from the 1930s through the 60s. The exhibit invites you to step off a cruise ship into a make-believe vacation in paradise. The illusion is supported by tourist memorabilia, maps, tropical scenery, and other artifacts representative of our notions of what Hawaii was and is. From early surfers, cruise ships and the burgeoning tourist trade to Elvis, the Beach Boys and Parrot Heads, the sounds, colors, styles and ethos of ‘Blue Hawaii’ will be resident at ATHM during the run of the special exhibition.

Hawaiian Islands Coral Reef

Aloha! Welcome to the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands Coral Reef Ecosystem Reserve Aloha! Welcome to the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands Coral Reef Ecosystem Reserve The Executive Orders On December 4, 2000, the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands Coral Reef Ecosystem Reserve (Reserve) was created by Executive Order 13178. The Reserve encompasses an area of the marine waters and submerged lands of the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands extending approximately 1200 nautical miles long and 100 nautical miles wide. As part of the establishment of the Reserve, Executive Order 13178 contains conservation measures that restrict some activities throughout the Reserve, and establishes Reserve Preservation Areas around certain islands, atolls and banks where all consumptive or extractive uses are prohibited. A 30 day public comment period was initiated to receive comments regarding whether to make permanent the Reserve Preservation Areas. Comments were also requested on the conservation measures for the Reserve. On January 18, 2001, after the close of the 30 day comment period, the process and establishment of the Reserve was finalized by issuance of Executive Order 13196. This Executive Order modified Executive Order 13178 by revising certain conservation measures and making permanent the Reserve Preservation Areas with modifications. With this action, the establishment of the Reserve, including the conservation measures and permanent Reserve Preservation Areas, was completed. Executive Order 13178 Executive Order 13196: Amendment to Executive Order 13178 Summary of changes to E.O. 13178 Next Steps: The National Marine Sanctuary Program (NMSP) is working with the Reserve staff to develop the Reserve Operations Plan (ROP). In developing the ROP, NMSP sought recommendations from the Reserve Advisory Council and consulted with the State of Hawaii and the Department of the Interior. In addition, the Reserve and the NMSP have begun the process to designate the Reserve as a National Marine Sanctuary under the National Marine Sanctuaries Act. Scoping meetings were held in April of 2002 to collect public commentary on Sanctuary Designation, and the Reserve staff is currently working with the Reserve Advisory Council to synthesize and prioritize the comments collected. Please go to our Sanctuary Designation area for more information.
