SUMMARY:E Pili Kākou I Ho`okahi Lāhui
DESCRIPTION:About E Pili Kākou I Ho`okahi Lāhui\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nE Pili Kākou I Ho`okahi Lāhui is a Hawaiian hula conference and retreat that has been held for over 20 years.

SUMMARY:E Kanikapila Kākou Week 8:  “A Legacy of Hawaiian Song & String” featuring Raiatea Helm and an Ensemble of Hawaiʻi’s Top Musicians
DESCRIPTION:E Kanikapila Kākou 2025  \nOUTRIGGER Kaua‘i Beach Resort and Spa  \nTheme: “Music Heals” & “Hawaiian Music Traditions”  \nMonday Nights – 6:00 – 8:30 pm\, through March 24; Doors open at 5:00 pm  \n Week 8\, March 24:  Raiatea Helm presents: A Legacy of Hawaiian Song & String\, Volume One — Raiatea Helm and an Ensemble of Hawaiʻi’s Top Musicians \nJoin us for an extraordinary evening that unites the past and present in a heartfelt celebration of Hawaiʻi’s enduring legacy. Raiatea Helm will present an unforgettable evening showcasing her critically acclaimed album\, A Legacy of Hawaiian Song & String\, a tribute to the troubadours of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. \nAccompanied by an ensemble of Hawaiʻi’s finest musicians – Ian OʻSullivan\, Duane Padilla\, Scott Robert Villiger\, CaseyAlan Olsen\, and Kapono Lopes — Raiatea breathes new life into these timeless compositions\, honoring the composers and storytellers who shaped Hawaiʻi’s rich musical history. \nRaiatea is one of the last keepers of traditional Hawaiian music\, setting the standard to ensure the quality and authenticity of this cherished art form are preserved and honored. Through her interpretations\, she carries forward the legacy of these mele\, bringing to life the voices and stories of a once-flourishing nation. \nBorn on Oʻahu\, raised on Molokaʻi\, and deeply connected to Hanapēpē\, Kauaʻi\, where her mother is a native\, two-time Grammy nominee and multiple Nā Hōkū Hanohano Award winner Raiatea Helm is known for her clear leo kiʻekiʻe (high voice) and her mastery of leo haʻihaʻi —a uniquely Hawaiian vocal style where the intentional breaking of the voice reflects the deep emotions embedded in the poetry of folk songs. These songs speak of love\, longing\, and connection to people and places. \nAs Raiatea prepares for the next installment\, A Legacy of Hawaiian Song & String: Volume 2\, this performance offers a glimpse into her ongoing mission to preserve and celebrate the music of the Hawaiian Kingdom.  \nPurchase tickets at: http://EKK2025.eventbrite.com \nThe Garden Island Arts Council presents E Kanikapila Kakou 2025 as a Community Enrichment program made possible with funding support from the Hawaiʻi Tourism Authority (HTA) with support services from Kilohana at Council for Native Hawaiian Advancement (CNHA). \nEKK Special from Hotel: \nWe are so excited you are attending our EKK Concert Series!

SUMMARY:BOB MACKIE: Naked Illusion
DESCRIPTION:Presented by The Fashion Club of KCC.  Tickets are $10 and free for KCC students\, staff and faculty.  Ticket and concession proceeds benefit The Fashion Club. \nBOB MACKIE: Naked Illusion \nShowcases the six-decade career of award-winning costume designer\, Bob Mackie.  And like his costumes\, Bob Mackie is wholly unique and unfiltered\, which makes for a compelling and candid subject. \nThe film examines Bob’s unique upbringing\, those whom he has held dear within his inner circle\, and the familial surprises in his life that have all contributed to the optimism and audacity present in his work. \nBecause the film is fully authorized\, Quixotic Endeavors was given access to the full Bob Mackie archive\, which has been meticulously kept and curated with many rare and unseen artifacts\, including the outfits that didn’t make the cut. We also capture the over-the-top costumes as they get sequined and beaded from sketch to stage. Specific highlights include some of the soon-to-be lost art methods by old-world artisans that help make each outfit Mackie conjures something to behold and remember. \n\nThe documentary feature includes original interviews with Bob Mackie clients and collaborators\, along with those he has inspired – designers\, stylists\, comedians and actors\, as well as Bob’s first-person account of some of his most iconic looks from The Carol Burnett Show’s Scarlett O’Hara dress to Cher’s 1986 Academy Awards look with feathered headdress and Tina Turner’s iconic concert costumes.  Bob Mackie is a truly peerless and timeless costume designer\, with interviews from Cher to Pink\, to Tom Ford and Miley Cyrus\, to Rupaul and Carol Burnett a testament to that fact.
