Volcano Art Center Gallery
3 reviews for Volcano Art Center Gallery
Local artists supply all the fodder.
These same said artists are the people the Kilauea Wilderness Marathon 10, and 5 mile races turn to for awards.
Nice to see local art utilizes this way.
Loved the paper covered table outside, plenty of crayons to go around (except that I wanted all of them, I'm not sharing!)

This is a cute little gallery.They have some very interesting pieces, although very expensive!
Even if you don't buy anything,it's still nice to walk through. There are many different types of art, (at a variety of prices.) They're all done by local artists,and very unique.
The building is also interesting in it's own right. It was originally a hotel in the 1870's.

Located across from Volcanoes National Park's visitor center, the gallery used to be a hotel, which explains why it's made up of small rooms. A lot of the art pertains to volcanoes, but plenty of it doesn't, and most of it was pretty mediocre. Disappointingly so, I mean, I looked at many of the pieces and thought of similar ones I'd seen elsewhere that were so much better. Many mediums there: photo, paint, pastel, glass, wood, metal, fabric, ceramic, etc. The wooden pieces were probably my favorite, and ranged from bowls to lamps to benches. There were some great photos of volcanic eruptions as well, but at no point did I feel I needed to have anything in there.
