FEBRUARY 2025

COMING SOON: HT25
We are looking forward to Hawaiʻi Triennial 2025 (HT25) and are proud to be one of 13 sites of exhibition and programming across Oʻahu, Maui, and Hawaiʻi Island, February 15 - May 4, 2025.

Capitol Modern will be showcasing selected works as part of Hawaiʻi’s largest thematic contemporary art exhibition. HT25’s theme, “ALOHA NŌ”, explores love, solidarity, and transformation through a range of diverse perspectives, and invites visitors to [re]consider their own notions and preconceptions of aloha. We’re proud to be part of this once-every-three-years cultural event and can’t want to share this incredible experience with you! Learn more on the Hawaiʻi Contemporary website: HawaiiContemporary.org.

Capitol Modern museum galleries are temporarily closed while new exhibits are being installed.
