from island to island: celebrating polynesia in new york city
Sample the Polynesian community's unique contribution to New York City at Halawai's upcoming event Island to Island, benefiting Polynesian voyaging canoe Hokule'a's NYC arrival. Featuring modern Hawaiian cuisine by Noreetuh, one of NYC's buzziest new restaurants; cocktails designed by legendary mixologist and Hawaii local Julie Reiner and made with Kaua'i's premium, small batch Koloa Rum and Maui's own OCEAN organic vodka; a silent auction of pieces by contemporary Pacific artists and unique NYC experiences; and performances by slack key artist Andy Wang and Ori Manea Tahitian Dance School, Island to Island combines the excitement and innovation of New York City's Polynesian community with the enduring message of the Hokule'a's inspiring journey.
