The Kaululehua Hawaiian Cultural Center is excited to announce its aloha-filled, family-friendly annual Holiday Art & Craft Fair which will take place at the beautiful Harvey Milk Arts and Cultural Center on Sunday December 7, 2025 from 10-5pm. It will be a day to shop for unique Hawaiian arts & crafts, to experience delightful Hawaiian music and hula, short classes and sharings, and to enjoy delicious food – all in a beautiful setting nestled in the San Francisco.

This year’s event will feature handmade island-inspired merchandise designed by some of the Bay Area’s finest artisans – including NāPua Designs, Lamalama Perfumes, Island Memories – as well as exquisite crafts such as jewelry, books, household items, candles, fragrances, apparel and other unique products of Hawa’i.  It’s the perfect place to find that special something for the tropical-loving friends and family on your holiday lists.

Come join the fun this winter!  Be transported back to the islands with the sweet sounds and sights of Hawai’i – and feel the aloha of a wonderful artist community coming together for a great cause too!
