Hana Hou (once more) Story Sunday for Makahiki, October 19, 2014


Storyteller Mokihana Calizar throws her net and pitches her tent once more to
tell more stories that hold life together.

This time, stories about Makahiki the Hawaiian Season of Peace will fill the air. Come to chant, listen and be involved. The audience will be taught one new chant to create sacred space, and practice the chant E HO MAI taught last year and repeated many times during September's Story Story Sunday event. Three stories 'create the net': one about 'Iole The Rat, a Hawaiian mo'olelo will rattle your preconceptions about the often maligned creature; another story from the Lakota Nation about 'Iktumi the trickster spider will question what is important in your life; and the third story from Hawaii taught in September is about the girl Pelehonuamea's initiation and her role as fire-maker. If there is time Mokihana will invite the audience to tell the story of The Safety Pin Café the original medicine that gave birth to this place where stories that hold life together are told.

If you were under the tent of The Safety Pin Café in September,
bring your AUNAKI with you
to help tell the story of Lono and Pele
