Support Lihue Airport Display Exhibitions by Garden Island Arts Council
For many years our dedicated GIAC volunteers have created the beautiful displays you see at Lihue airport.
The materials for the displays & the signage all cost money. We provide these from GIAC funds. We appreciate your help to keep this educational & informative program going.
Any donation is appreciated! Mahalo
