Lahaina Printsellers Art Contest

Lahaina Printsellers is proud to host regular juried art exhibitions in our Lahaina Gallery,
providing opportunities for local Hawai‘i artists and photographers to showcase their work to the many visitors and residents of Maui who are passionate about collecting and celebrating art. 

October's Theme

“Native Endemic Species of Hawai’i”


Our inaugural juried exhibition will highlight artwork that celebrates the
extraordinary natural beauty of Hawai‘i, with a special focus on native and endemic species.

Details
• Native species are those that occur naturally in a region, either by evolving here or by
arriving without human assistance—flying in, floating in, or being carried by the wind.
• Endemic species are found only in a specific location—in this case, the Hawaiian Islands.


Artists are invited to submit works that reflect the plants, insects, birds, fish, and wildlife unique to our islands.
