What We Do
About Us
Oni Foundation Inc. is a Registered 501c3 (509a2). We cultivated a Cultural Activity Center located in Maui where guests can attend one of our regularly scheduled Crafting, Dance or Music Activities which include Ukulele, Salsa and Language lessons, History presentations, Lauhala weaving, Tahitian Drumming, Polynesian Dance Fitness, and more.
Challenge
For most of Maui’s visitors the only cultural experience they’ll have is at a $250 luau. The most authentic experiences remain out of reach, out of sight. This is especially true for thousands of Kahului Cruise Ship Passengers who disembark with no visitor-specific engagement, activity, or destination.
Solution
Create a Destination Experience in Kahului. Offer Accessible, Informal, Introductory cultural dance and arts classes, workshops, and exhibitions. Hui with varied cultural experts and practitioners from around the state and Oceania. Offer tailored programs to attract cruise ship passengers.
Priority
We look to serve the community at large as well as community organizations that align and seek to perpetuate traditional cultural experiences. We ultimately look to reach Kama ʻaina Families and Cultural Activity Seekers who become regular participants in our mission.
