The MACC is pleased to collaborate with the Hawai‘i State Art Museum to present an exhibit of hula-inspired and hula-related works from the Art in Public Places (APP) Collection.

This will include portraits of loea hula (hula resources) by photographer Shuzo Uemoto as well as paintings of renowned kumu hula who have received the Order of Distinction for Cultural Leadership from the State of Hawai‘i, including ‘Iolani Luahine, Rosalie Lokalia Montgomery, Mary Kawena Pukui, and Edith Kanaka‘ole.

To complete the exhibit we have invited several Maui families from uninterrupted genealogical lines of hula to display their unique costumes,adornments, and implements of hula.
