Hawaii's Woodshow 2017 - 25th Anniversary

Hawaii’s WoodshowTM, Na La‘au o Hawai‘i is Hawai‘i Forest Industry Association’s (HFIA) annual juried woodworking exhibition. The 2017 Hawaii’s Woodshow will run September 23, 2017 through October 8, 2017 at the beautiful Honolulu Museum of Art School, Linekona Gallery. Hours are Tuesday through Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm and admission is free.
Attendees to Hawaii’s WoodshowTM are treated to extraordinary heirloom-quality works made from Koa, Mango, Kamani, Milo, Norfolk pine, macadamia nut, Kiawe and other interesting and beautiful Hawai‘i-grown woods. Hawaii’s Woodshow encourages an appreciation for the participating artists and the materials they use. It promotes the positive role forests play in our economy and ecology. The Show calls for the use of wood from Hawaiian-grown tree species, especially those that have been planted and brought to maturity here in Hawai‘i. It serves as a reference point for the planting of native and non-native high value hardwoods for future generations.Three Jurors are selected from a broad range of expertise. Typically one juror is a nationally renowned artist from the abroad. Judging is based on “Inspiration of Design” and “Excellence of Implementation.”
This year's jurors were Mark Sfirri of Pennsylvania, John Gonczar of Washington, and Noe Tanigawa from Oahu.
