Hours and Location | Kid's Page | Director's Letter The Honolulu Academy of Arts is internationally recognized for the excellence and diversity of its holdings. The Academy's permanent collection of over 35,000 works of art is anchored by one of the finest Asian collections in the United States. Special exhibitions and installations from the permanent collections reflect the encyclopedic nature of the Academy and the diversity of Hawaii by presenting a wide range of cultures, periods and media. To thoroughly engage our visitors, the Academy's approach is to use multiple avenues for interpreting a given theme, providing everyone with the opportunity to appreciate and enjoy the fine arts. The Honolulu Academy of Arts is a private, nonprofit institution located in a historic building not far from downtown Honolulu or Waikiki. With its full schedule of studio art classes, gallery tours, school programs, family activities, as well as a film and performance series, the Academy is dynamic and ever-changing--fulfilling the dream of Anna Rice Cooke and distinguishing itself as Hawaii's premier arts institution. In the late 1930s, Doris Duke built "Shangri La," her Honolulu home, on five acres of property overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Diamond Head. Shangri La incorporates architectural features from the Islamic world and houses Dukes extensive collection of Islamic art, which she assembled over more than 60 years. The Doris Duke at the Academy (formerly the AcademyTheater) is one of Hawaii's most popular venues for independent, foreign and documentary films, as well as for lectures and performing arts. Unless otherwise noted, admission to all films is $7 general, $6 seniors(62+), students(w/I.D.), military(w/I.D.) and $5 members. Tickets for films may be purchased at the museum's front desk the day of the screening or at the theater entrance 30 minutes before the show. Art comes alive at the Academy through classes, programs and tours for learners of all ages! The Honolulu Academy of Arts is a gathering place where members of our community and visitors to our islands enjoy special events and cultural festivals, family days and gallery tours, performances, lectures, and films, as well as internationally acclaimed exhibitions. Your involvement and support play an essential role in our continuing success. The Academy Shop offers a wide array of ethnically diverse merchandise, including gifts, posters and publications. Many of the items reflect the outstanding collections of the Honolulu Academy of Art; others are one-of-a-kind artworks by contemporary artists of Hawaii. Customers can browse through 2,000 square feet of space in a contemporary Hawaiian ambiance as part of the Academy's new Luce Pavilion Complex
or they can now order online! Welcome to the Honolulu Academy of Arts.

Hawaiian shirts based on
Different Styles of Hawaiian Shirts Different Types of Hawaiian Shirts There are different types of Hawaiian shirts based on the style or layout of the design. The most common ones are the basic all-over print and the scenic print. But there are variations within these types well as several other styles. We'll also cover some of the terminology used for Hawaiian shirts. All of our shirts are made in Hawaii with great care and with special attention to the details like matched pockets. Basic All-Over Print Hawaiian shirts: These shirts are probably the most common shirts. They are characterized by a repeating print that appears all over the fabric in a uniform manner as illustrated to the left. These shirts can be worn tucked in our out. These shirts typically do not match up perfectly to create a seamless image at the buttons. Scenic Print Hawaiian shirts: The scenic shirts are similar to the all-over print shirts in that the details in the print repeat in a uniform matter. The only difference is that these shirts contain scenery rather than just a simple repeating image of a flower or leaf. For some people, the scenic prints conjure up feelings of freedom and being on vacation. These shirts typically do not match up perfectly to create a seamless image at the buttons. Panel Hawaiian shirts: Some shirts have prints that are laid out in vertical panels, usually flowers and/or leaves. Like the basic all-over prints and the scenic prints, the panel designs have repeating patterns, but they repeat as you go from one side of the shirt to the other, rather than all over the shirt. These shirts typically do not match up perfectly to create a seamless image at the buttons. Border Hawaiian shirts: Shirts that have a design going across the shirt are called border Hawaiian shirts. Most of these shirts have a design in them that repeat every 10-12 inches as you go from one side of the shirt to the other. If the design happens to go across the bottom of the shirt, they may be called a Bottom Design Hawaiian shirt . The shirt illustrated at left is a border shirt that also happens to be a bottom print. Border Hawaiian shirts are meant to be worn untucked. Matched Prints: Some border or bottom print Hawaiian shirts have a seamless image at the buttons. The shirt to the left, unlike the one right above it, is perfectly matched at the buttons creating a seamless image as you go across the shirt. These shirt are harder to make and require greater skill and attention to detail. Many border print shirts do not match at the buttons like this one does. Engineered Hawaiian shirts: Engineered Hawaiian shirts have a seamless image from one side of the shirt to the other. The image usually repeats every 18 inches, which is greater than that of most border print shirts. The shirts also have a seamless image that is uninterrupted at the buttons. These shirts are usually the priciest shirts for any given quality of fabric because it requires the most fabric to manufacture. Engineered Hawaiian shirts are meant to be worn untucked to show off the entire design. Matched Pocket: The better Hawaiian shirts have a matched pocket. That means the pocket exactly matches the print on the shirt making it nearly invisible. In the picture to the left, you can see that the palm tree leaves on the pocket precisely line up with the leaves on the shirt. The result is a seamless image created by the pocket on the shirt. Creating matched pockets requires the use of more fabric and more precise cutting and sewing. All of our Hawaiian shirts come with a matched pocket. Return to Hawaiian Shirts Home Questions?
