HONOLULU, HAWAI‘I—Halloween is just around the corner and the Honolulu Museum of Art is ready to celebrate at Bank of Hawaii Family Sunday: Hocus Pocus on Sunday, Oct. 21. Kids are encouraged to come in their most festive costume!
If they don't have one yet, don't worry. Keiki can make their own unicorn tails and horns with ribbons and sparkling fabric.
Once properly in costume, kids can create a Halloween-themed lantern using tissue paper, a plastic cup and an LED tealight.
Guests can head down to the Education Lecture Hall to get their groove on in a silent disco from Hawaii Dance Bomb. Each person will be given a pair of wireless stereo headphones that can switch between three different music channels.
From 10:45-11:45am, guests can catch magician Harvey Ouchi in Gallery 30 (next to the Education Lecture Hall) to see what tricks he has up his sleeve!
