Hawaiian Leis | Folk Art Workshops

Chee-hoo! In Hawaiian culture, leis are a symbol of celebration and connection that date back to the early settlers of the state. They represent affection, emotions, and respect.

Teaching artist Kumu Pōmaika`i leads our next workshop. A cultural adviser, kumu hula, and lei-maker, Kumu is an artist from Wai’anae, Oahu. He teaches Hawaiian traditions at his studio in the Salt Lake area.

Participants will create beautiful handmade leis to take home.

No experience is needed—just bring your excitement and love for art!

Space is limited. Sign up before we fill up!
