Hui No’eau, Beginning Lauhala Bracelet Workshop -Sunday, Sept. 22, 2024
Begin your journey into the Hui’s upcoming LAUHALA WORKSHOP SERIES with BEGINNING LAUHALA BRACELET – LEVEL 1. This course will begin with a brief introduction to Lauhala, covering the basic history of Lauhala weaving in Hawai’i, basic terminology and its cultural significance. Next, students will learn how Lauhala goes from a dried leaf to a weavable material and how it is collected and processed. Learning these stages of weaving is something teaching artist Koral Gill’s Kumu sees of huge importance, as almost a “right of passage”. For the remainder of the class, students will be making their bracelets. The goal for each student is to leave with a finished bracelet. The instructor will provide information on how to continue on and create more bracelets outside of the workshop and how/ where to purchase proper Lauhala tools to strip (cut) the leaves, and pullers to finish a project.
