The two-day event will host scholars and artists from UHM and Ko Hawai‘i Pae ‘Āina. Through panels, workshops, film screenings, and networking sessions, ANNO’26 stimulates conversations about Indigenous performance, and the importance of intergenerational transference of knowledge, language, and artistic practices.
