Saw this event listed in a nice article about Alfred Shaheen in today's LA Times.

The Bishop Museum in Honolulu will celebrate Shaheen's vision with an exhibit Nov. 10-Feb. 4. "HI Fashion: The Legacy of Alfred Shaheen" will include more than 200 works in the 5,000-square-foot gallery in the Bishop's Castle Memorial Building.

The Bishop exhibit, which grew out of a San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles exhibit in 2010, will be more than double the size of the California exhibit. The new show will also include a section devoted to artists who have been inspired by Shaheen, whose influence you undoubtedly will sense on your next casual Friday.

Sounds like a great exhibit.
