Tam & Young Arts Chair

The Tam & Young Visual and Performing Arts Chair was established in 1999 to further promote the arts at ‘Iolani School.

Thanks to the generosity of Anthony A. and Anna S. U. Tam and their daughter and son-in-law, Anne and Alan Young, the Tam & Young Arts Chair funds dozens of visiting artists to ‘Iolani School each year

The entire ‘Iolani community benefits from these enriching educational experiences as the artists work with ‘Iolani students and faculty to share their knowledge and talents.

‘Iolani School welcomes additional support to fund the arts.  For information, call the Office of Institutional Advancement at 943-2269.
