Volcano Art Center introduces Hula Voices at the gallery in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.
Volcano Art Center introduces Hula Voices at the gallery in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.
This new, free educational offering will take place from 7-8 p.m. on the first Thursday of every month at the gallery.
Hula Voices presents an engaging, intimate “talk story” session with Hawaii Island’s kumu hula who eat, sleep and live lives centered on the practice of hula and its associated arts.
Join VAC for an informative and fun hour as the kumu hula share their hula genealogy, traditions, protocols, experiences, chants and choreography that are rooted in the ancient Hawaiian practice of hula.
Each monthly event will feature a different kumu hula and occasionally their haumana (students).
These free cultural events are supported in part by a grant from the County of Hawaii Department of Research and Development and the Hawaii Tourism Authority.
National park entrance fees apply.
