About

The Folauga o le Tatau Malaga Aganuʻu Faʻasamoa: Art Studio & Gallery of American Samoa

strives to breathe new life into the traditional Samoan artistic practices of our past,

and to bring these practices into our present and future through creation, education, and research.

This mission is vital to the continuation of Samoan culture in the Pacific and around the world.

The Art Studio & Gallery will fill a necessary role not just in the preservation of our indigenous art forms on our island,

but in the education of Samoan and foreign peoples around the world.

Our Goals

Promote and perpetuate knowledge and practice of the arts through educational programs and events online, on-island, and abroad.

Create a center of information about Samoan arts through social media, web presence, and community engagement.

Foster relationships with arts programs, researchers, artists, artisans, and professional organizations worldwide.

Create a strong future for American Samoa through integrating ancient arts with modern technologies.

This is the space to introduce the values of your business and tell visitors about its importance to you.

Establish American Samoa as a center for artistic expression and research in the Pacific.
