"The Local" and "The Tourist"| Shared Challenges and Opportunities for Honolulu Arts Organizations

<p> Operating within the overlapping and sometimes-conflicting spheres of the tourist and the local, arts organizations in Hawai&lsquo;i face shared challenges in the form of Hawai&lsquo;i&rsquo;s brand, limited resources, and accessibility issues. To identify common successes and struggles in the face of those challenges, this thesis conducts case studies of four key Honolulu arts organizations: the Honolulu Museum of Art, the ARTS at Marks Garage, POW! WOW! Hawai&lsquo;i, and the Honolulu Biennial Foundation. Results show that these organizations can best overcome their common challenges by pooling resources in the form of knowledge, money, space, and people; advocating for cultural tourism; and investing in long-term collaborative programming and arts education initiatives.</p><p>
