About this Event

The deadline to sign up is Thursday, August 12th, noon.

$60 includes hands-on instruction, lei culture & etiquette session, all materials needed, and extensive Q&A.

In Hawaiian, "po'o" means "head," so a Lei Po'o is a headcrown lei. You'll learn to make a beautiful 21-inch Lei Po'o with Fall colors using a beautiful assortment of Autumn flowers and greenery (depending on availability). You'll learn the wili style (pronounced vee-lee, meaning to wind or twist) to make your Lei Po'o.

Your teacher is Sophia Thiros of Wehilani's, filling in for Margery Ohlson. She’ll share information about how to prepare the materials and prolong the life of your lei po’o. She will talk about lei culture and etiquette, all while Hawaiian music plays softly in the background.

What to bring:

  • Water bottle (refills provided)
  • Hat
  • Close-toed shoes
  • Wear sunscreen
  • Autumn vibes

Check-in begins 15 minutes before the event starts. Please give yourself enough time to arrive, park, and get a seat, as the event will begin promptly at the start time.

We'll be in our open classroom in the shade. This is a rain-or-shine event.

Note: Cancellations are allowed up to 24 hours before the event. Eventbrite ticketing fees (around 8%) will be deducted.
