Join us for Lau Ke Aloha x Pilina ʻĀina: From Preservation to Restoration to Reuse. This free, family-friendly community gathering invites our Maui community to celebrate the next step in well-stewarded archaeological and cultural preservation areas, the thoughtful use of excess materials for hana noʻeau (creative expression). This gathering is designed to connect more deeply with place through hands-on learning and strengthen pilina with ʻāina in the Honuaʻula moku.
Our Lau Ke Aloha gathering is following a golf event to honor Maui Youth & Family Services and Friends of the Childrenʻs Justice Center for their vital work towards supporting Mauiʻs keiki and ʻohana. Our intention for this gathering is to come together in care, grounded in knowing, aia ke ola i ka mālama, there is health and well-being in care. We invite you to learn more about each of these nonprofits and show some support for these wonderful organizations by donating to their missions below.
