Navigation and Hawaiʻiana at the 1996 Artists-Teacher Institute

Nainoa Thompson of the Pacific Voyaging Society and Kumu Keola Lake of the Haku Mele Academy of Arts will be featured guests at the Artists-Teacher Institute 1996. The Artists-Teacher Institute 1 996 program plans to integrate arts curriculum of video, drama and printmaking with navigation and Hawai'iana. Lake and Thompson will offer stargazing and storytelling sessions as well as presentations on Hawai'iana and wayfinding. The program is filled with workshops for teachers of grades 6-8, and artists. DOE teacher credit is available through the College of Continuing Education. The artists' workshops are for artists interested in working with students,

teachers and the community in public schools. Artists will experience first hand how artist-instructors develop their classes for teachers and students.
