About the Fair Housing Keiki Art Contest

In 1968, the Fair Housing Act became law. It prohibits discrimination in housing based on race, color, religion, ancestry/national origin, sex, familial status, physical or mental disability, marital status, age, or sexual orientation and gender identity. This law ensures that everyone has equal access to housing and protects homebuyers from discrimination.

The annual Hawai'i REALTORS® Fair Housing Keiki Art Contest helps children learn about fair housing rights and its importance in Hawai'i's communities.

The contest is open to all students in grades K-8, enrolled in a public, private, charter, or home school in Hawai'i.
