Hālau Nohona Hawai‘i nurtures the Hawaiian community throughout Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia by teaching and living cultural practices grounded in ʻike kupuna and aloha ‘āina. The hālau builds a sense of home and belonging for Hawaiians living away from Hawai‘i, ensuring culture remains lived, embodied, and shared. In partnership with Hawai‘i Pacific Foundation, Hālau Nohona Hawai‘i continues to expand spaces of cultural grounding, identity, and pilina for the diaspora community.
