Kaka’ako Agora, a warehouse space on Cooke Street, is opening full time this week with films, live printmaking, discussion sessions and the Honolulu Night Market. HPR’sNoeTanigawa takes a look at what’s in store.
Groundbreaking programming at Kaka’ako Agora continues, and all are welcome to visit and propose their own projects. The Agora should be open from 9am-6pm, Monday through Saturday starting this week. You'll know because the doors on Cooke Street across Fisher Hawai'i will be open and the printmakers will be busy inside. All are welcome to drop by and make a print yourself. The printmakers have reversed the humdrum "march of progress" by taking digital photos, processing them, and translating them into wood blocks, which you will use a hand crank to print with a press. The original photos are of the Kaka'ako neighborhood, and visitors to the area will complete the 816 piece, wall size artwork over the next nine days. The finishing prints will be added the night of Art and Flea, June 26th, just one of the summer gatherings ahead at the Agora.
