Embark on a journey across the moana, where vaka have long been the vessels of our people, carrying cultures and stories over vast waters. This exhibition invites you to experience the exquisite artistry of hand-carved vaka designs from Micronesia, Melanesia, and Polynesia. In an age where the tradition of craving vaka is waning, this exhibition celebrates the craftsmanship that preserves our heritage, narratives, and the vibrant artistry of Pasfika.
