E hoʻohuli ka lima i lalo.
Turn the hands down.
{When the palm of the hands face down they are occupied and productive.}

Back in the Spring of 2012, Hui Mālama O Ke Kai (HMK) celebrated the completion of it's first Board and Stone Class - supporting the vision of a “board and stone in every home".  To support and encourage the continuation of cultural learning and ʻohana strengthening, HMK initiated Kuʻi Kalo Night - an event hosted monthly by HMK to provide the space and opportunity for families to have a “family night" together.  Keiki are pre-occupied with hands-on learning, void of electronics - iPhones, tablets, etc.  Mākua are reminded of how to spend uninterrupted quality time with their children.  All are inspired to be “present" during the event.

Hesitant to join us because you do not have your own board and stone? No worry!  HMK has the tools and supplies you will need to kuʻi ʻai (pound food).  Staff will cook the kalo ahead of time so that all attending ʻohana need to do is clean and kuʻi (pound) their kalo!

Kālai Papa ā Pōhaku Kuʻi ʻAi
Traditional Poi Board and Poi Pounder Workshop
​CLICK HERE TO RSVP

Perpetuate Hawaiian cultural practices and support the vision of "a board and stone in every home"!  ʻOhana join together and learn how to work as a unit to create their own poi board and poi pounder.

By looking through the lens of our kūpuna (ancestors), participants will gain ʻike (knowledge) from a cultural perspective - learning how to carve a board and shape a stone by hand, using tools you will create yourself while building stronger family bonds!
