New Media Arts Hosts the New Arts Lecture Series

The New Arts Lecture Series seeks to stimulate and motivate attendees by providing opportunities to interact personally with artists, animators, and media technicians from a global pool. The Series brings leading industry professionals to the island in a unique forum that includes a community lecture and/or hands-on workshop in the New Media Arts PCATT Lab at Kapi‘olani Community College, followed by discussion. These presentations and workshops, which provide valuable industry-based and aesthetic insight as well as inspiration from experts, are free and open to the public.
