Discover the Workshop
Join us for a fun and exciting journey into Native Hawaiian Cultural Arts! In this hands-on workshop, kids explore the rich traditions of Hawaii as they create and design art projects inspired by Hawaiian culture. We learn the art of lei making, create beautiful patterns, and even build our own traditional instruments. Along the way, students pick up some basic Hawaiian words and discover the deep cultural meaning of Mālama ‘Āina—caring for the land and our connection to nature. Through ceramics, painting, and more, we experience the beauty of Hawaiian traditions while having fun!
