Makaliʻi Makes 30
30 Plus Years of "HeARTwork"
Uncle Keoki Manu returned to the realm of Pō this year, before his transition, we were blessed to hear his moʻolelo and the stories behind his creations. He will continue to guide us, and his art will live on with Nā Kālai Waʻa and the Makaliʻi ʻohana forever.

Our sails have been filled by the support of our community, friends and family. For over 30 years, we have provided waʻa, moku, ʻohana, moʻolelo, mele, and aloha because of your continued support.
In 2025, Makaliʻi celebrates her 30th birthday. We humbly ask you to continue your support as we expand our Holokai education program and internships, grow our leadership and crew capacity through our Ke Aho Hālau O Makaliʻi, and continue to feed our crew, families, and community through our Hanauna Mau program.
The tasks ahead to finish the repairs to our moku and our waʻa is immense, but the work is necessary to “make ready” for our future voyages. All of this work is possible because of your continued support.
