This juried exhibit holds the central place in Hawai`i Craftsmen programs and is the finest vehicle available in Hawai`i for craft artists throughout the state to display the excellent quality of both contemporary and traditional work.

Our annual exhibit is statewide because both jurying and community building activities occur in all counties. To offer outside input, we usually bring a juror of national or international reputation from out-of-state. He/she travels inter-island to jury the actual artwork rather than requiring entries to be shipped to Honolulu or juried from slides. Hawai`i Craftsmen pays one-way of the shipping costs to get all chosen pieces to Honolulu for the exhibit and returned to the neighbor islands.

Talking with local artists and giving free public lectures give the juror an opportunity to interact with the community in small settings.
