Bringing together the work of 49 artists and artist collectives, across multiple sites, on three islands, Hawai‘i Triennial 2025 (HT25) is the state’s largest, thematic exhibition of contemporary art from Hawai‘i, the Pacific, and beyond. Every three years, Hawai‘i Contemporary presents the Triennial across museums, galleries, and outdoor and unconventional art spaces, and offers a complementary program of public engagements.

Entitled ALOHA NŌ, HT25 invites visitors to [re]consider their own notions and preconceptions of aloha. Artists will explore the practice of aloha, as it engenders a deep connectivity to the ʻāina (land), oceanic environment, elements, and each other. It enables us to protect and defend inter-archipelagic relations, that which we love, and our mutual interdependence.
