“I support the Arts Program because it constantly reminds me of how rich and profound each culture is. It nudges us away from the intellectual and the verbal and provides opportunities for discovery and new experiences for hundreds of Hawai‘i citizens and school children.”
-Ric Trimillos
The East-West Center’s Arts ‘Ohana is a distinguished group of individuals who support the goals of the Arts Program. Jean E. Rolles is the current chair. While the basic operating costs are covered from other sources, contributions are needed to support exhibitions and performances by visiting artists from Hawai‘i and throughout the Asia Pacific region.
Please join the East-West Center’s Arts ‘Ohana as a Statesman ($5,000), Ambassador ($1,000) or Member ($500).
