The family-operated fine-art gallery and gift shop in the heart of Pahoa also offers a variety of locally made gifts, from Puna-grown coffee, clothing and jewelry to soaps, lotions, student works and gift cards.
“This space is for artists and producers who live or work in Puna to have a venue to showcase their talent and to market their unique products to the public,” said owner Amedeo Markoff.
The gallery is located at 15-2901 Pahoa Village Road and open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. daily, but closed Wednesdays. An event-filled grand opening will be March 31.
