Perfect place to eat some lunch take in the sights feel the breeze listen to the birds sing.
Grassroots movement in art. I love the recycling art. Junk art show was pretty awesome to see. I talked to a couple of artists who were very helpful and passionate about art. Hawaii is full of creative energy. Just swim or surf the energy flow!!!! Lol.
Beautiful art gallery set up when I visited. Their were free apples in the common area for visitors and the central fountain is very unique, It is powered by rain water. The building was clean and very open. I love all the windows to the outside viewing the surrounding park. Work checking out if you are in the area one day. I wouldnt travel far just to go here, though. Spent about an hour exploring the exhibit and surrounding area.
Great community resource for meetings and events. Overlooks the park and Hilo Bay with an open layout. Nice facility being well used by community groups including Toastmasters and school art programs. Easy parking.
Excellent art show!
Nice airy art center. Has an area where artists may hold talks and demos. Two levels. Many times artists are local people. Most shows may be seen in a half-hour. Bring a picnic lunch for the Wailoa Center is in a park with picnic tables.
Interesting, informative, free. Kinda like a.3-D view of an amateur website.
A fantastic art gallery that changes its exhibit of local aritists with a new theme every month. Oh, and its free!!!
Quiet art gallery located in the lovely Wailoa State Recreation Center. The theme when we visited was pleine air artwork.
A very serine park to be by the water, lie under the shade of banyan trees, walk/run the paved yet rustic paths, walk over the sloping bridges and peer into the calm waters, feed the ducks and geese that live around the park, and any number of active or relaxing activities you can think of. It is connected to the Tsunami Memorial and Wailoa Art Center, which has free admission and often displays many creative works that change every month.The major drawback is, the bathrooms are run down, but not at the Art Center!
We came for the photography exhibit. And it was well worth it. The building is in the round, so it is perfect for viewing art.A few years ago we enjoyed a quilt show here. I did pick up a 2019 schedule, wish I could return for a lot of the upcoming events. AND both that I attended were free.
The exhibits were amazing for local artists. I suggest attending before its gone.
Art,Exhibits that change every month. Great wood works,Bowl turning to Oil painting and more.
Pristine natural pond beautifies this natural watershed Lakeshore river. The expanse of six bridges over natural flowing water, with fishermen, of course finding valuable menu fish here.
You will not find a Better Way Of Seeing the Works of Fine Craftsmanship, in Many Venues, A Must for Kamaiana and Friends who have just arrived.
Nice small line art displays by locals.
Artwork changes monthly! Local artists. The wood turning bowls are amazing.
Great people and great art exhibits.
This was a cute little art center that features local artists. They were still setting up a few of the installations but it didn’t seem as if anyone was in charge or that there were guided tours. Quickly made out way through in about 20 minutes. Wish they would have had a self guided tour or had more descriptions regarding the artists. Otherwise a nice insight into current hawaiian artists.
Theres always something interesting going on here! The parking could be a little better (especially for a place that rains practically daily) but the facility itself is super nice and the people are always friendly.
Art gallery had beautiful wpi rk.
Too much ducks. Lol .Its a great place.
Our artist here, in and around Hilo, are talented. Worth every second of my time. Very inspiring, creative artist!
As an RSVP Retired Senior Volunteer Program memories...for over ten years ....My four hourshift weekly is so precious and insightful. Meeting and greeting our visitors, local folks and the inspired Artists of diverse backgrounds is a pleasure!Each month our venue is different and worth your enjoying. The first Friday of the month is the Opening Reception and a chance to meet and greet the featured Artists.
Sweet little gallery with a nice picnic area around it!!
Staff very informative and helpful
