A benefit concert to raise funds for Ka Papa Lo‘i ‘o Kānewai, the Hawaiian Studies cultural garden and kalo terraces, will be held from 2-6 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 3. “It’s good for the students on campus, especially those in the dorms with nothing to do,” said Edward “Makahiapo” Cashman, Director of Ka Papa Lo‘i ‘o Kānewai. “It’s going to be a really fun ‘bring the whole family’ kind of day.” The resource center will be a two-part complex containing im-

It’s something that is very important to me.” Cashman said he hopes the event will instill a sense of pride in students who attend the school. He mentioned that students come from the mainland to be in Hawai‘i, and some do not ever really learn about the authentic cultural aspect that comes with it. “I’m not saying this is the right way to learn about it all, but we’re the host culture, you know?” Cashman said. “We want students to build confidence and find their voice.”
