The opening weekend for Fiber Hawaii 2026 is behind us — and we're still thinking about the incredible work, the details you only catch up close, and the transformation of materials to celebrate the tradition of Hawaiian fiber work.

If you didn't make it this weekend, you have until June 27 to check out the 72 pieces in person!

Make and take RAKU ceramics today!

Hawaiʻi Craftsmen Community Kiln
Saturday, May 9, 10 AM - 2 PM
Find us in front of The Arts at Marks, 1159 Nuʻuanu Ave.

During the The HEART of Honolulu Street Festival in Chinatown, the public is invited to experience the excitement of raku firing in this family friendly activity. Participants get to glaze ceramic bowls under the direction of Hawai’i Craftsmen members, see them fired using the raku process, and take their masterpiece home that day.

$15 per bowl, includes blank bowl, glaze, and raku firing. No reservation required, but supplies are limited, so come early. Allow about 2 hours from start to finish.
