“Ceramics of Hawaii 2020”
Postponed until 2021

Hawai’i Potters’ Guild regrets to announce that the second statewide juried all ceramics exhibition at the Honolulu Museum of Art School Gallery has been postponed until 2021.

We are working with the Honolulu Museum of Art School on a new date. As information becomes available, we will update you.

We look forward to seeing how the ceramic artist community expresses their interpretation of the theme “RESILIENCE”

is hard! We get it. We miss seeing you too. But we'd love to see all the creative ways you're keeping your clay spirit alive.
Whether you're potting at home, taking a clay class online or channeling your creativity into lots of cooking baking or cleaning to keep you sane, we'd love for you to share and keep our Guild family connected during this time.
Tag us so we can repost!

While we were hoping that we would not need to close, after today's guidance from the Governor we have made the difficult decision to close the studio for two weeks, from Sunday 3/22 through 4/4. Visit our website
to learn more about our closure and revised studio calendar.

Stay safe, stay connected, and protect yourself and others. We appreciate your support and understanding during this difficult time.
