Details:

HoMA’s quarterly Family Sunday event celebrates Earth Day, highlighting art and artists inspired by nature. Participate in two special programs that encourage a deeper connection with the environment, loss, and renewal.

As part of Hawai‘i Triennial 2025, HoMA and Bishop Museum collaborate to bring you a special opportunity to explore the world of native snails with its team of malacologists (snail scientists)! See live specimens of endangered snail species with the Bishop's experts, then create your own rare snail species in an art activity to take home!

See art
See Satoru Abe: Reaching for the Sun, featuring paintings and sculptures that celebrate nature—they are filled with rocks, seed forms, roots, and trees.
Experience the work of artist Hayv Kahraman, part of Hawai‘i Triennial 2025. For one of her pieces, she spent time with Bishop Museum scientists learning about Hawai‘iʻs endangered land snails. Another work was inspired by Makua Valley.

Make art
Pūpū painting and kūpeʻe krafting: Join Bishop Museum malacologists to paint 3D-printed snail shells. Learn about Hawai‘i's rich biocultural diversity through the lens of our endangered Hawaiian land snails.
Framed Dot of Nature: Make mini dioramas that highlight the natural world.

Learn
Meet live native snails!: See live endangered and rare native snails that you can find nowhere else in the world, and that inspired artist Hayv Kahraman. These snails are reared in captivity at Bishop Museum's Pūpū Ola: Kāhuli Captive Rearing Research Center and the Hawaiian Land Snail Conservation Program.

Art Talk: Join Hawai‘i Triennial 2025 artist Hayv Kahraman and celebrated public intellectual Dr. Báyò Akómoláfé, for a discussion on the concept of disruptive events that create spaces where new ways of being may emerge.

Performances
10:00am-12:00pm: Kumu Hula Mālia Ko‘i‘ulaokawaolehua Helelā and her hālau Nā Hula Ola Aloha perform hula. Then you can take part in interactive lessons.
