#kauluhiwaolele

Outrigger Kāʻanapali Beach Resort invites guests and the community to immerse themselves in two deeply rooted cultural experiences this fall: the Kauluhiwaolele Maui Fiber Arts Conference (Sept. 11-13, 2025) and Hula O Nā Keiki, the coveted children’s hula competition (Oct. 10-11, 2025).

The second annual Maui Fiber Conference wrapped up in Kāʻanapali this weekend. The event, entitled Kauluhiwaolele, speaks to the esteemed groves from which fibers are gathered to fashion traditional crafts.

Students will learn traditional Hawaiian weaving techniques and styles including hala, ʻieʻie, kōkō puʻupuʻu and ‘upena from master practitioners.
