With renovations and updates to the meeting and convention function areas of Hilton Waikoloa Village to be completed by the end of September, the property will host a live art auction to make space for the new pieces coming in. Open to the public, the auction presents an opportunity to own a piece of the famed collection, and will contain more than 100 pieces of artwork and fine furniture from the conference center, such as a Buddha statue, a Wyland painting of a whale and its calf in a custom-made koa frame, a cinnabar red carved dragon and furniture pieces including tables, chairs and sofas. All items have no reserve, with the exception of the Wyland painting.
