CASTINE – Join staff member Sarah Grindle for Hawaiian hula dancing at the Wilson Museum in Castine. Participants will be able to see hula dancing costumes, implements, and a short demonstration. Afterward, they will be able to try the art form for themselves. The first one-hour session will begin at 1 P.M.; a second session will begin at 2:30 P.M.on Friday, July 30th.

Sarah has trained for three years with Mary Beth Hewitt at the Hui Na Kawaiuaili dance troupe in Frankfort, Maine. The troupe performs only authentic hula as they strive to remain faithful to the true values and traditions of the people of the Islands of Hawai’i.

The Wilson Museum is located at 120 Perkins Street in Castine. The program is free, and the young of heart—ages 6-96—are encouraged to attend. For more information, contact 326-9247 or info@wilsonmuseum.org.
