About us
Hula I Ka Lā Hawaiian Cultural Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization, based in Clovis, California. The purpose of the Foundation is to encourage the community to embrace cultural diversity while fostering values that are paramount to the Hawaiian culture. Programs will be offered through the Foundation's Educational Series to perpetuate the arts with the hopes of inspiring creativity, open-mindedness and ALOHA.
The Foundation is the next step in the growth of Hālau Hula I Ka Lā, where we are guided by the ALOHA Spirit Law (Hawai'i Revised Statutes, Section 5-7.5). Since its inception in 2014, our Hālau Hula (Hula School) has participated in numerous community events that promote multiculturalism, wellness, well-being, and the performing arts, among other benefits.
Since 2014, our Hālau organized "Aloha in the Park". For 10 years, this annual, outdoor event brought the community together to celebrate multiculturalism through music and dances of the world. Hundreds of people from all over Central California shared their Aloha Spirit, popped up their tents and laid down their picnic blankets to enjoy performances from various groups while partaking in local foods or browsing through the delights of local retail vendors.
In September 2025, Hula I Ka Lā Hawaiian Cultural Foundation, in collaboration with Pasifika Arts Project, will continue to enrich our Fresno/Clovis community through a new event called "Passport to Pasifika". As for Aloha in the Park, we welcome Hawaiian cultural experts, Hula po'e, and Kumu Hula to share what they can, so that we can help in preserving and practicing traditions accurately and respectfully.
