Native Art, Culture, Education, and Healing in Hawaiʻi: Family Stories of Connection
Abstract
This personal essay takes shape around short descriptions and images of recent community arts and cultural events of Hawaiʻi. Reflections by the authors bring additional layers of meaning to the text. Through the interweaving of these different elements, the essay proposes family stories of Native art, culture, education, and healing in Hawaiʻi as antidotes to art-historical canons, especially those reinforced by settler colonial museums and Westernized higher education systems in the Hawaiian Islands.
