Oki Social is launching a brand new store, Ohana Art Store, in August 2021 on Kadena Air Force Base in Okinawa. The new store is located inside the Kadena Exchange on the first floor. Our mission of this project is to serve artists, creative hobbyists, and collectors in our community by offering art supplies, gallery space, creative workshops, and production services.
Established in 2016, Oki Social is a household name for Okinawa focused art and gifts. We are a vendor in over 10 stores on Okinawa. Our newest store, Ohana Community Shop, is an outlet in the Kadena Exchange for people who are looking for art and gifts made by local creators on Okinawa. We are super excited to partner with the Exchange to build a new hub for artists on Okinawa.
Attention Artists on Okinawa
We would like to invite you to join our gallery program to sale your original artworks, art prints, merchandises, and services at the Ohana Art Store at the Kadena Exchange.
Sell Your Original Artwork
We have 500 square feet of wall space available to display your art. The space is opened to anyone who has original artwork for sale. You can start from as few as one piece of art and display for as little as one day.
Sell Your Art Prints and Merchandise
Sell art prints and other merchandise at the Ohana Art Store. We will also feature your merch at the Ohana Community Shop. If the military community on Okinawa is your primary audience, the Kadena Exchange is the best spot on the island to sell your merchandise.
