HONOLULU (HI Now) - The 15th Annual Honolulu Surf Film Festival (HSFF) returns to the Honolulu Museum of Art (HoMA) Doris Duke Theatre with a primo lineup of shorts and features from Hawaiʻi and around the world as well as events and talk story sessions from July 11-Aug. 4.
The festival kicks off with an opening reception and screening of “The Shape of Things: The Dick Brewer Story” on Thursday, July 11 at 7:30 p.m.
Throughout the month-long festival, films will look back at the history of surfing and to its future. Closing out the HSFF on August 4, a special afternoon screening of Bud Browne’s “Locked In!” will be followed by a talk story panel of intergenerational surfing luminaries, a gathering that is now an always sold-out tradition for Hawai’i’s surf community.
All film tickets are $12 for members and $15 for general admission and are available for purchase at honolulumuseum.org/theatre.
This year’s featured artist is Aaron Kai who specializes in Post Pop Art with a focus on the beauty of Hawai’i’s flora and waves.
Special thanks to the 2024 festival committee members Manny Aloha and Crystal Thornburg-Homcy. Major support for the festival is from Aqua-Aston Hospitality.
