On August 2, Hecho a Mano artists Ian Kuali'I and Lehuauakea will present Wai Ulana (Woven Waters) an exhibition of traditional kapa and hand-cut works on paper, exploring themes of environmental relations, Indigenous cultural resilience and contemporary Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian) identity.

Also opening August 2, is Digegv (Where I'm From) by Rhiannon Skye Tafoya (Eastern Band Cherokee & Santa Clara Pueblo). Tafoya comes from a lineage of basket-weavers on both sides of her family, and the practice of traditional basketry profoundly influences her art. Both exhibitions will be on view through September 2, 2024.

The openings will be on Friday, August 2, 5-7pm. The artists will give talks about their works on Sunday, August 18, at 12pm.
