​Other Ways to Get Involved

  1. Join our next Hui Mo‘olelo cohort; a 3-part storytelling workshop that prepares participants for intergenerational talk-story sessions rooted in a Maui sense of place. These conversations form the basis of annual calls for artist proposals. (Our most recent cohort completed their workshop on July 5, 2024. The next start date is TBD). 
  2. Join our Local Public Artist Roster: We regularly receive requests and inquiries about muralists, performers, teaching artists and more. In 2022 we launched a Local Public Artist Roster to help advance our Countywide Public Art Master Plan initiative, and we've found it to become a useful tool in responding to these increasing inquiries. If you would like to be included, click the "Roster Application" button at mauipublicart.org/roster.
  3. HOST a work of public art at your site: As we expand to new towns through 501c3 Maui Public Art Corps, we have explored several hosting options with and without cost-share obligations. If your site is available to the public, open-air and does not interfere with neighboring businesses or residents, please complete our site host questionnaire HERE. 
  4. Apply: We work with CaFÉ when a new set of public art opportunities arises. Established artists share their ideas, samples and references regarding a specific project opportunity, and a community panel makes recommendations on the most promising projects for each site. Our latest RFP closed in September 2024. Join our monthly eNewsletter list HERE to be the first to know. 
  5. Take a self-guided walking tour: Follow the virtual map or download the Ho'okama'āina app to get started.
  6. Use the Ho'okama'āina app in your classroom or community group: Within this tool, you will find three walking tours — cultural, historic and public art — with points of interest that offer details and stories compiled by a team of Wailuku champions. Download Ho'okama'āina here. 
  7. Contribute and collect art at our Little Free Art Galleries: These unique galleries serve as miniature art hubs where artists of all ages and skill levels are invited to contribute their creations. The concept is simple yet powerful – leave a piece of artwork, take a piece of artwork. It's a delightful exchange that encourages artistic expression and community engagement. Learn more HERE.
  8. Host a film night and discussion of proverbs: Hands-on artist workshops and talk-story sessions that once generated shared imagery and physical exchange in a pre-pandemic world have given way to micro documentaries capturing the conversations that build the cumulative artwork. View our film collection HERE. 
  9. Tune in to the podcast: Click to check out the Public Art Podcast where we talk story with the artists, community members, project facilitators, small business owners, supporters and story holders working together to envision Wailuku as an arts district. 
  10. Interview a loved one for our StoryCorps archive: StoryCorps allows users to upload pre-recorded interviews to its official archive; the largest born-digital collection of human voices housed at the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress in Washington D.C. View our StoryCorps Archive page HERE. 
  11. Join the Maui Public Art Youth Task Force: As a Task Force member, Maui youth in grades 9-12 actively contribute to public art projects that celebrate Maui's rich history, diverse culture, and unique sense of place. The Task Force's opinions, ideas, and suggestions directly shape works of art, leaving a lasting impact on our community's artistic legacy.
