Hawai'i Craftsmen was founded in 1966 as a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting fine craft in the art community of Hawai'i.

Through our long established series of programs and events, we aim to bring craftspeople of all ages and skill levels together to learn and share the benefits of creating.
