Lau Ke Aloha: Hawaiʻi Games & Kinolau Native Species Art Creation Day

Join us for Lau Ke Aloha: Hawaiʻi Games & Kinolau Native Species Art Creation Day on Sunday, August 10!

This free, family-friendly event invites our Maui community to connect with native species through play and creativity. We’ll start the day with traditional pāʻani Hawaiʻi (Hawaiian games) to unwind and have fun, followed by hands-on art sessions led by local Maui artists. Each session highlights a different native plant, offering a creative way to deepen your pilina with ʻāina and native species.
