About this Event
Join us for two days of stimulating conversations as we explore the importance of intergenerational collaboration at ANNO'26!
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.
This year’s conference celebrates the power of passing knowledge from generation to generation within Indigenous and Hawaiian cultures. The two-day event will host scholars and artists from UHM and Ko Hawai‘i Pae ‘Āina.
