Mahalo to our participating artists, and to Mālama Kīpuka for their support of this year’s festival, previous art installations at this park, and continued efforts to improve and activate City parks around town!
As Hawai‘i’s oldest and largest storytelling celebration, this festival aims to perpetuate the Native Hawaiian tradition of passing knowledge orally through storytelling. In its 35 years of existence, the festival has been presented in many locations and adapted to the times, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, the storytelling sessions from the 32nd and 33rd Annual Talk Story Festivals remain available to everyone around the world through our DPR social media platforms.
