New Exhibitions At Hawaii State Museum:
Palolo Kids and Friends

Palolo Kids & Friends, a new photographic exhibition is on display at the Downtown @ the HiSAM Gallery on the first floor of the Hawai'i State

The exhibition features black and white photographs made in the mid-1970s by Eric Yanagi and Francis Haar. The photographs show children playing and hanging out in their Palolo community. Now, 35 years later, these black and white images are a window to a moment in time when kids could be kids and friends were forever.

This look back at a day in the life of Palolo, a suburb of Honolulu just minutes down the freeway from the Hawai'i State Art Museum, is a nostalgic reminder of the roots and fabric of our Hawai'i community. The images provide an opportunity to reflect on our communal past. They provoke curiosity about where we've been, and where we are today.

The Hawai'i State Art Museum is in the No. 1 Capitol District Building at 250 South Hotel Street in downtown Honolulu across from the State Capitol. The museum is open Tuesday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Free admission. For more information, visit www.hawaii.gov/sfca.
