"O ka wā ma hope, ma mua pono"

The past is our future 

-Frank Kawaikapuokalani Hewett

Ulupono Leis was established to continue the story that my father began in our family as a Hawaiian Slack Key artist. It is his intention and kuleana (responsibility) to live righteously and uphold the Hawaiian values, both of which he expresses through his music. Ulupono and discipline are exercised through the beautiful art of lei-making at Ulupono Leis, with aloha woven into every creation. 

Ulupono: n. to prosper on the right path
