Hana Arts has been awarded a $10,000 grant from the Office of Hawaiian Affairs to support holiday events bringing East Maui together, the nonprofit announced Tuesday.
The events will be held in December at Hana High and Elementary School, on location during the Hana Farmers Market and virtually via social media. They include the annual Hana Community Winter Show, which features community groups and Hana School class performances; a holiday booth for free professional family portraits; and a holiday craft booth at the Hana Farmers Market.
"Hana Arts is so appreciative to receive support from OHA for our Holiday programs as these events are a beloved tradition for 'ohana to come together," Hana Arts Executive Director Becky Lind said in a news release. "After a challenging time of disaster, displacement and economic stand-still, we are excited to bring the 'ohana together and capture beautiful images of these times for future generations to remember their kupuna, connection to culture, and community of Hana."
