WELCOME TO HAWAI'I

Volcano Art Center is based on the Big Island in Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park on the summit of the world's most active volcano, Kilauea. Many programs focus on the geology and volcanology of this dramatic setting, as well as the ecology of the Hawaiian high-elevation rainforest. Experience fresh lava flows, fragile endemic flora and fauna, and Hawaiian culture, history, and legends with expert scientists and historians on a journey of a lifetime.

Join our friendly, knowledgeable staff in one of our upcoming educational adventures.
