9:00 - 11:00 am
Take a deeper dive into Hawaiian Culture-Based Practices with specially curated virtual hands-on workshops. Some Friday practitioners have so much to share they want to share with you, they have opted to keep the learning going as their schedules permit. Other workshops will see new faces adding their ʻike and practices to the conversation.
We look forward to more conversations and sharing, as we continue our collective quest to address our Summit Guiding Question. See the question at bottom of page.
Stay tuned for even more workshops and events coming in April! Additional sessions are continuing to develop and may include continued learning from these kumu, as well as newcomers. Interested in our April line up... click here!

More now than ever, no matter if it is at home or in the classroom, it's all about creating a sense of ʻohana (family) to keep together. What ʻohana best practices can we incorporate at home and/or in the classroom and how can that enhance learning and pilina? Participants will be welcomed into the Nā Pua Noʻeau ʻohana as we talk story and engage hands-on in the theme of family.
