Description:
The Honolulu Academy of Arts is Hawaii's premier art museum, with a collection of over 50,000 works. An encyclopedic museum where original works of art can be experienced in state-of-the-art galleries, it has major strengths in European and American painting, graphic and decorative arts, and the arts of Asia. With education as its mission, the Academy also administers the Academy Art Center at Linekona, the largest private art school in the Islands.

The Honolulu Academy of Arts works closely with teachers and schools to bring art into the everyday lives of students.

CURRICULUM GUIDES
The Academy is developing Curriculum Guides to supplement the school tours. The guides give additional insight into the tours and provide K-12 teachers with several suggested lesson plans that address HCPS III benchmarks in a variety of subjects. The guides also provide teachers with tour images.
