MAUI HANDS began a tradition of representing Hawaii's fine artists, artisans, jewelers, woodworkers, glassblowers, potters, and sculptors in the Spring of 1992. The first location opened in August of 1992 at The Courtyard in Makawao, with 25 artisans. The second gallery began operation in November of 1994 at the Queen Kaahumanu Center in Kahului and later moved to Lahaina's Front Street. For seven years in a row MAUI HANDS won the Center's Award for "Highest Sales Per Square Foot" in its category. MAUI HANDS opened its third location in April of 2000 in the town of Paia on the picturesque north shore of Maui. This spacious location provided high ceilings and a varied wall space as well as much needed room for the increasing foot traffic. In December of 2002 Maui Hands was invited to open at the prestigious Hyatt Regency, Ka'anapali, which allowed those artist remaining on the waiting list to be represented. Maui Hands opened in September 2004 on Front Street in popular Lahaina Town, making it the busiest of the four Maui Hands galleries.
