"We recognized there was a demand among our visitors for a bilingual Japanese website, and we were pleased to partner with Hawai‘i's own CuteWeb, Inc. on bringing it to life," said Janet Miyake, A/P Marketing Manager. "Eastbound visitors continue to be an important market for us and our website serves as an excellent tool in providing pre-arrival information on Bishop Museum's exhibits, facilities and education programs."
In conjunction with the launch of the new website, Bishop Museum is offering several promotions through April 30, 2004. These promotions include a downloadable coupon for 10% off the Museum's Ho 'Ike 'Ike and La Kule'a programs, two on-site cultural programs offering Japanese visitors a close-up look at Hawaiian history and culture. In addition, website browsers can enter to win a VIP Pauahi card with such benefits as a one-year subscription to Ka Elele, 5% discount on gift shop merchandise, and a discounted admission rate to Bishop Museum for the effective period.
