AAPIHM Kickoff and Lei Day
Tuesday, 5/1 | 4 - 7:30PM | Commonground

Join Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month and PRIDE 2018 for a celebration of Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander cultures!

The event will start at 4pm with speaker Kawaiola Deguilmo, who will be talking about deconstructing gender, followed by a performance by Hokupa'a.

Afterwards, we invite you to join us in making lei that embody the aloha spirit. The mana (spirit) of the creator is sewn into the lei - when you give a lei you are giving a part of you. When you receive a lei, you are receiving a part of its creator. Se, wear your lei with pride!
