Currently, as the County of Maui is completing its Wailuku Improvement Projects, it is collaborating with a team of Wailuku-based arts programs, businesses and cultural practitioners to designate Wailuku Town as an official arts district.
This massive effort to coordinate facility and public space planning, management, maintenance and collaborative programming will result in an interconnected destination that maximizes the public's opportunities to experience, learn and celebrate the arts. This website serves as a reference point for ongoing developments to the Wailuku Arts District Management Plan and will be updated regularly through the Plan's 2023 delivery.
