HONOLULU, HAWAI‘I—Since 2010, Honolulu Museum of Art admission has included same-day
admission to its second location Spalding House in Makiki Heights. Starting Feb. 7, on Tuesdays the museum
offers a free shuttle bus ride between its main location at 900 Beretania St
and Spalding House, from 11 a.m. to 3:15 p.m.
For years people have asked if the museum had a shuttle between the two
locations, and now it does.
The museum owns the bus, which is used as the Shangri La
tour bus from Wednesday to Saturday.
A round-trip
ride and an hour spent exploring Spalding House is about 90 minutes.
The Tuesday
shuttle rides between Honolulu Museum of Art and Spalding House are included
with museum admission. To take the shuttle, guests simply check in at the
Visitor Information Center at the entrance of the museum. The last shuttle
leaves Spalding House at 3:15 p.m. The shuttle service will be offered through
June 20.
HoMA Select Shuttle Tour: Tuesdays at 1
p.m.
Also on Tuesdays
is the museum’s HoMA Select Shuttle Tour, a
guided tour of the museum’s masterpieces—as featured in the new catalog Collection Highlights. Visitors meet at
the Visitor Information Center at the Beretania Street location. A docent takes
guests on a 45-minute tour of works such as the 11th-century statue of Guanyin
and Seated Nude by Modigliani, then escorts guests on the shuttle to Spalding
House where they explore more masterworks in the exhibition HoMA Select. The
“greatest hits” shuttle tour is offered through June 20.
