The Molokai Arts Center, in partnership with Ka Honua Momona, is launching a new pilot program in February 2017. The Hawaiian Arts Program kicks off its first event on Friday, February 24 th at Ka Honua Momona’s Hale Momona at Ali`i Fishpond (by the 3 mile marker east of Kaunakakai) with a talk story session on Native
Hawaiian tools and weapons. The talk story session will go from 5:30 to 7:30pm, is open to the public and free of charge. All ages are encouraged to attend. The event will include discussion on the history and craft of Hawaiian tools and weapons from three contemporary makers:
