Volcano Art Center is a nonprofit educational institution dedicated to nurturing creative discovery, learning and sharing through arts education and artistic development. Volcano Art Center develops, promotes and perpetuates the artistic, cultural and environmental heritage of Hawai'i's people through the arts and education.

Volcano Art Center (VAC) is based out of two locations in Volcano on the Big Island of Hawai'i, at Kīlauea, the world's most accessible and active volcano: our Gallery in Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park & our Niaulani Campus Administrative Office in Volcano Village.

Our Passion

We are passionate about Art & Nature

Voted year after year as the best gallery on the Big Island of Hawai'i, the Volcano Art Center Gallery is a must-see stop in Volcano.
