Heading into its 9th year in Hawaii, Contemporary art initiative POW! WOW! went back on home turf to Oahu for POW! WOW! 2019. Supported by the Hawaii Tourism Authority and Alohilani Resort Waikiki Beach, POW! WOW! Hawaii took place during Valentine’s week, February 8th and ran until the 17th, in the Kaka’ako district of Honolulu, and brought over a hundred international and local artists together to share their love of art! If all this wasn’t enough to WOW! you, there was a POW! with music from Eminem at the Aloha Stadium!
