The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua is celebrating the29th Annual Celebration of the Arts Festival  virtually for 2021. Since the festival’s inception 28 years ago, Hawaii’s most reputable artisans, educators, cultural practitioners, and entertainers have convened on the sacred shores of Honokahua to celebrate the islands’ cultural and historic cornerstones. In lieu of celebrating in person this year, the resort will spend the remainder of 2021 “Celebrating the Arts” with a series of monthly virtual experiences being housed on The Celebration of the Arts

Guests from around the world are invited to participate in the 29th Annual Celebration of the Arts from the comfort of their own home through virtual panels, artisan video bios and displays, thought-provoking interviews, prose and poetry and many other unique and exciting presentations yet to be imagined. The theme of this year’s event is “Ua ‘Aukahi Na ‘Ale…United, Flowing As One.” Artist and Fashion Designer Sarai Strickland will soon be unveiling her piece to reflect upon this theme.

We will continue to release new Celebrating the Arts content on the second Friday of each month commencing over a period of one year and counting down to the 30th Anniversary of Celebration of the Arts in 2022. This new monthly series will ensure the integrity and purpose of this award-winning festival is preserved by
