Lei Poʻo at Ossipoff Cabin - February 1
Sunday February 1, 10am-2pm or 2-6pm (choose in dropdown)
Andrew Mau + Courtney Monahan are a creative collaboration that brings color, fresh blooms, and joy to Pālehua when they host lei poʻo workshops at the Ossipoff Cabin. Lei poʻo, worn on the head, will be taught as lei wili, where the stems of ferns and flora are bound together by winding rafia to create a flat base for the forehead. All materials will be provided.
The 4-hour workshop includes an hour of guided travel up and down the mountain, and three hours of instruction. Guests can look forward to refreshments and time to explore Vladimir Ossipoffʻs personal retreat.
Ossipoff Cabin was built in the mid 1950s by Vladimir Ossipoff and restored in 2020 by the Gill ʻohana. The cabinʻs Japanese-inspired style, careful use of local materials, and breathtaking view make for an inspiring setting for workshops.
