Please consider joining us on Saturday, April 27, for an object interpretation workshop at the Hawaiian Mission Houses Historic Site & Archive. The workshop will address the ways that objects tell histories and the relationships between historical narratives and objects.

Dr. Karen Kosasa will introduce the “new/old museology,” two ground-breaking exhibitions, an innovative college program, and the “rights” of objects. Halena Kapuni-Reynolds will discuss how objects tell stories about relationships between people.

The second portion will include hands-on exercises with selected objects from the Hawaiian Mission Houses Collection.
