Volcano Art Center (VAC) is proud to announce the exhibition “Nā Kama a Ohiohikupua Lāua ʻo Lauhuki” presented by members of Hui ʻAla Hīnano and Waianuhea o ka Pua Hala students of Kumu Kāʻeo Izon. The exhibition presents works by various artists dedicated to the art of lauhala weaving and design. The exhibit will be on display from April 12th – May 11th, open daily 9am -5pm in Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park. Meet the artists at a reception in their honor on Friday, April 25th from 11am -1pm. The participating artists will also provide a live weaving demonstration that same day.
Through the exhibit titled “Nā Kama a Ohiohikupua Lāua ʻo Lauhuki,” the Volcano Art Center honors the traditions of lau hala weaving. The district of Puna on the Island of Hawaiʻi was known for the abundance of hala trees. Also known as Pandanus tectorius, the species of Pandanus (screwpine) is native to Malesia, Papuasia, eastern Australia, and the Pacific Islands. It grows in the coastal lowlands typically near the edge of the ocean. Common names in English include thatch screwpine, Tahitian screwpine, hala tree (pū hala in Hawaiian) and pandanus. In the Hawaiian language, “Lau” translates to “leaf,” while “lau hala” specifically refers to the leaves of the Hala tree. Ancient Hawaiians utilized the tree for various purposes, including food, its seeds for paintbrushes and wood for building materials and calabashes.
Lau hala demonstrated its universal utility, throughout multiple Polynesian cultures being woven into everyday items such as trays, baskets, shade hats, skirts, loincloths, ceremonial bracelets, and anklets. Notably, Polynesian voyagers, understanding the material’s strength and resilience, constructed sails woven of lau hala for journeys across the open ocean.
Though it is a long and arduous process to prepare the leaves for weaving, the final products are works of art with a pleasing earthy feel. Today, the art of weaving lau hala stands as an enduring tradition imbued with profound reverence and cultural significance. Weavers not only bear the responsibility of carrying forward the delicate skills of the craft but also of paying homage to its rich heritage and preserving lau hala weaving traditions. Each weaver carries their own distinctive impression, creating a unique style that manifests in the choice of patterns, the shades of lau hala, and the meticulous details within the weaving process. The exhibit showcases the talents of seven separate artists from two separate ulana (weaving) groups, Hui ʻAla Hīnano and Waianuhea o ka Pua Hala, both under the direction of Kumu Kāʻeo Izon. Kāʻeo Izon is from Āliapaʻakai, Oʻahu and is a Kumu ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi teaching in the style of Kealaleo. Kāʻeo began weaving in 2009 with Kumu Ipolani Vaughan (also his Kumu ʻŌlelo), learning how to weave piko and covers. In 2011, Kāʻeo began weaving moena poepoe and pāpale with Kumu Evva Lim. He later learned different styles and techniques from Kumu Suzi Swartman of Oʻahu and Kumu Margaret Lovett of Kauaʻi. Kāʻeo has established an all male group of weavers, Ka Hui ʻAla Hīnano on Oʻahu and an all female group, Waianuhea o ka Pua Hala where both language and weaving are perpetuated.
Don’t miss this opportunity to explore “Nā Kama a Ohiohikupua Lāua ʻo Lauhuki.” Visit the Volcano Art Center between April 12th – May 11th, 2025 and journey through varied techniques and intricate patterns while honoring the profound cultural significance of these traditions being practiced in our culture today. For more information call VAC Gallery at (808) 967-7565.

Hālau Maunalei is located in Kealakekua and shares hula with students from Keiki to Kūpuna. The Hālau continues to participate in many community events throughout Kailua-Kona and Hawaii Island!

Hula Kahiko: Unuokeahi with kumu hula Stacey Kapuaikapoliopele Kaʻauʻa
Saturday, October 11th | 10:30am
Volcano Art Center’s Hula Arts at Kīlauea performance series resumes on Saturday, October 11th, with a presentation by Unuokeahi under the direction of kumu hula Stacey Kapuaikapoliopele Kaʻauʻa. The performance begins at 10:30am, and takes place in Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. Park entrance fees apply.
On the winter solstice of 2016, Unuokeahi opened her doors under the tutelage of kumu hula Kapua Kaʻauʻa, affectionately known as Kumu ʻAuʻa. ʻAuʻa underwent the ʻūniki rites in December 2014, led by her kumu Dr. Taupōuri Tangarō of Unukupukupu. It is with this that she was bestowed the title of kumu hula. The Unuokeahi traditions stem from the Kanakaʻole hula ʻaihaʻa traditions in Hilo.
Hālau Unuokeahi is made up of culturally sustainable members from various communities. Students who arrived at the hālau come to learn traditional and cultural leadership through moʻolelo, ritual, and environmental sustainability. Many of the students of Unuokeahi have reached or are reaching higher academic degrees, an essential piece for the journey of the hālau.
Along with Hālau Unuokeahi comes the Unuiti Hula Ensemble program from Ka ʻUmeke Kaʻeo Charter school in Keaukaha. Started by her kumu, Taupōuri, in the early 2000’s, Kumu ʻAuʻa continues this program throughout all 11-grade levels. Hula ʻaihaʻa, moʻolelo, and ritual are taught through the Hawaiian language medium. It is a rigorous program, requiring students to create, and manifest their hula world in every aspect. From making implements, gathering, fabrication, and ‘āina projects, to haku hula, these core learning accouterments are required of every student. Paired with academics, it makes it for a dynamic program.
This performance is part of a year-round series sponsored by the Volcano Art Center (VAC). VAC is pleased to resume the series which invites hula hālau from across Hawaiʻi to perform in a one-of-a-kind outdoor setting at the kahua hula (platform), located near the VAC Gallery in Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. Audience members are encouraged to bring sun/rain gear and sitting mats.
These family friendly, free events are supported in part by Hawaiʻi Tourism Authority. if you, your ‘ohana or business would like to support these wonderful programs please contact Emily Weiss at the Volcano Art Center.
