Honolulu, HawaiÊ»i –The public is
invited to attend the 12th annual Art at the Capitol on Friday,
April 3 from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the State Capitol. At
this festive and free event, visitors are welcome to view art works by local
artists that are displayed in the offices of the Legislature.
The theme this year, “Art IN the Capitol:
Up Close and Personal,” reflects on the use of portraits in the public art
collection including the official portraits of prior governors now hanging in
the Governor's Ceremonial Office.
Art at the Capitol begins with the opening
program at 4:30 p.m. in conference room 329 that includes an
introduction of artists and special guests. Self-guided tours start at 5 p.m.
and the galleries of the Senate and House will be open to view videos from
previous events.
Throughout the evening, music will be
performed by the Hawai‘i Youth Symphony. The program ends at 7 p.m., however
the public is invited to continue the celebration of local art and music just
across the street at the Hawai‘i State Art Museum, which will be open until 9
p.m. and other events
in downtown Honolulu.
Art at the Capitol was developed as
an extension of the “Art in Public Places” program managed by the State
Foundation on Culture and the Arts.
