  • Position Specification
    Position Specification Honolulu Museum of Art Director Position Specification Director Honolulu Museum of Art The Client The Honolulu Museum of Art (HoMA) was founded in 1927 by Anna Rice Cooke, the daughter of a prominent missionary family. She married Charles Montague Cooke, also of a prominent missionary family, and settled in Honolulu, building a home in 1882 on Beretania Street, where HoMA resides today. From the beginning, Anna Rice Cooke, who spoke fluent Hawaiian, wanted a Museum that reflected the unique attributes of Hawai’i’s multicultural makeup. Not bound by the traditional western idea of art Museums, she also wanted to create an institution that showcased the island’s natural beauty and climate in an open and airy environment. Her thoughtful consideration is evidenced in the charming courtyards that interconnect the various galleries throughout the Museum. The permanent collection has grown from 500 works to more than 50,000 pieces spanning 5,000 years. The Museum has one of the largest single collections of Asian and Pan-Pacific art in the United States, including an unrivaled collection by artists of Hawai’i and the Pacific. The collection also contains significant holdings in American and European painting and decorative arts, 19th- and 20th-century art, an extensive collection of works on paper, Asian textiles, and traditional works from Africa, Oceania, and the Americas. Other highlights include the Samuel H. Kress collection of Italian Renaissance paintings and the James A. Michener collection of ukiyo-e prints. HoMA is dedicated to the collection, preservation, interpretation and teaching of the visual arts, and the presentation of exhibitions, performing arts and public programs specifically relevant to Hawai’i’s ethnically diverse community.

  • From Bishop Larry Silva – October 13, 2014
    From Bishop Larry Silva – October 13, 2014 Reflections on the Elevation of the Cathedral of Our Lady of Peace to the Status of Minor Basilica Throughout the Roman Catholic Church, there are many churches noted for their historic, liturgical, and architectural excellence. Some of these are given a special Papal honor by being named basilicas. There are four major basilicas, all in the city of Rome: the Archbasilica of St. John Lateran, the Cathedral Church of the Bishop of Rome, the Pope; St. Peter’s Basilica, with which we are all familiar; St. Mary Major; and St. Paul-outside-the-Walls. There are many minor basilicas in Rome and throughout the world, and now Hawaii is graced to have the blessing of a basilica in our Diocese of Honolulu. The Cathedral of Our Lady of Peace is certainly deserving of this honor, and with the help of Father Mark Gantley, Judicial Vicar, Bishop Larry Silva submitted a request to the Vatican that the honor be bestowed upon it. The Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, under a special faculty granted to it by Pope Francis, declared our Cathedral a minor basilica on May 10, 2014, the liturgical Memorial of St. Damien. The bestowing of the honor was publicly celebrated at a Mass of Thanksgiving on October 11, 2014, the fifth anniversary of the canonization of Father Damien. Our Cathedral, dedicated on August 15, 1843, is one of the oldest buildings in the city of Honolulu and is one of the oldest cathedrals in the United States.

  • 2017 – 2018 Judiciary History Center Annual Report
    King Kamehameha V Judiciary History Center 2017-2018 Annual Report Statue of Kamehameha I King Kamehameha V Lot Kapuāiwa, grandson of Kamehameha I, ascended the throne in 1863 and was the last Kamehameha to rule the Kingdom of Hawai‘i. As a national leader, Lot made foreign relations and the preservation of independence his primary objectives. His advocacy for Hawaiians inspired a cultural renaissance which included the revival of hula and chant and licensing of medical kāhuna to practice their healing arts. During his reign, Lot commissioned a number of public works including the construction of Ali‘iōlani Hale. In 2000, the Judiciary History Center was renamed to the King Kamehameha V Judiciary History Center in his honor. History of Ali‘iōlani Hale Historic Ali‘iōlani Hale provides the ideal environment for the Judiciary History Center. Initiated during the reign of Kamehameha V and completed during the reign of Kalākaua, Ali‘iōlani Hale opened its doors in 1874. The Legislature and the Supreme Court of the Kingdom of Hawai‘i were the original occupants of the building. After the overthrow of the Monarchy in 1893, the Legislature moved to ‘Iolani Palace. Ali‘iōlani Hale has remained the home of the Supreme Court for well over 100 years. The National Museum, the first museum in Hawai‘i, opened in Ali‘iōlani Hale in 1874. For many years, the National Museum occupied rooms on the second floor and welcomed visitors to view its fine collection of Hawaiian artifacts. In 1898, the Republic of Hawaiʻi's government transferred ownership of the collection to the Bishop Museum.
