KONA — your new creative sanctuary and curated community arts campus
In Hawaiian, "The Source Kona" translates deeply to NĀ KUMU KONA. A Kumu is a teacher, a foundation, and a source of knowledge. Our deepest intention is to support our incredible community of Kumus by providing a dedicated space to teach literally anything — Hula, music, Tahitian dance, art, lei making, or whatever your heart desires.
Come celebrate with us at our Official Community Open House & Soft Opening!
