The Office of Hawaiian Affairs’ Hilo Office, along with beneficiaries, engaged in a holiday wreath workshop last month taught by cultural practitioner and instructor Sandy Haunani Miyasato. Attendees created their own decorative piece utilizing native Hawaiian foliage and plants. Not only were they prepared for the holidays, but also they learned the traditional gathering practice based on the belief of our ancestors. - Photo: Kamaile Puluole-Mitchell
