Connecting our Kama'aīna; with our local community to celebrate the "timeless modernism" of Hawai'i's pop culture and to learn what we can do to educate and preserve Midcentury architecture here in Hawai’i.

We are excited to announce our inaugural collaboration with Hawai'i State Art Museum (HiSAM), UNIQLO and Mori by Art +Flea to host the first ever "Modernism Month" in the state of Hawai'i.  In conjunction with the Docomomo US National Symposium  2019, Mori Art + Flea will host two amazing events to celebrate Hawai'i's Modernism.
