“Talk Story” with Kumulāʻau & Haunani Sing

Friday, January 5 / 4-5pm

Free & open to the public, no registration required

Join us for a "talk story" with cultural practitioners Lloyd Kumula‘au & May Haunani Sing! Kumula‘au & Haunani will share about the past traditional and contemporary use of ʻieʻie along with visual examples of the art.  They will also talk about their journey and efforts taken to revive this cultural practice and its potential exciting future.

Lloyd Kumula‘au Sing Jr. & May Haunani Balino-Sing are Ke Kumu Hawai‘i, a husband and wife business team who share and teach Hawaiian basketry and culture-based education programs to the community. For the last 15 years, they have provided programs for community colleges, professional staff development workshops for educators and practitioners, and have hosted privately sponsored workshops. They are educators in the public and private school sectors, sharing with aloha about Hawai‘i’s host culture.

The Hui is offering a two day workshop with Kumula'au and Haunani on January 6th & 7th! Click here for more details and to register.

Art with Aloha programs are supported in part by the County of Maui Office of Economic Development.
