The goal of the Hui Mo‘olelo: Lahaina program is to capture an authentic moment of connection through stories that are embedded in a Lahaina sense of place. As participants complete our immersive storytelling workshop, each are paired with kūpuna to engage in an audio-recorded talk-story that captures these connective moments. These recordings become the basis for annual requests for proposals to interpret as a work of public art in collaboration with Maui community members. Proposals are selected by a community panel, followed by an intensive learning and cultural exchange that is rooted in specific places throughout Maui County.
Representing a wide range of special places and stories, the collection is available for your research, enjoyment, memory or inspiration at https://www.mauipublicart.org/hui-moolelo.html. Please enjoy.
