Join us for a private tour of the Honolulu Museum of Art by our FOISOH member and HoMA docent Nancy Miwa. Dr. Miwa will lead us on a tour of the architecture and surrounding outdoor spaces of the Honolulu Museum of Art. We will learn about the history of the building’s design, the landscape plantings, and outdoor art objects and how they interact to create this beautiful property that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The tour will start at 4:30pm punctual and will continue at 5:30pm in the museum café where we will enjoy pupus and drinks (self-paid).

ABOUT: After spending several years in the nonprofit arena, Dr. Miwa returned to graduate school to study the history, theology, iconography, and literature of the Middle Ages and Renaissance. She moved to Honolulu eight years ago and immediately trained as a docent at the Honolulu Museum of Art. Her travels have taken her all over the world, but she particularly enjoys her visits “home” to Italy.
