This is what #Wealth looks like: a community coming together, inspiring each other, and holding one another up. In celebration of our latest issue, we challenged community members to re-think the concept of #Wealth. In partnership with @hisoup_ and @waiwaicollective, we crowdfunded in support of three non-profit organizations. @kvibekkv, @puuhonuasociety, and @ihs for kahauʻiki village each took home an equal portion of the night's pot to fund their future projects. The nightʻs soup was deliciously crafted by Chef Mark Noguchi of @piligroup, accompanied by farm-to-cup drinks by @drinkgazoz and @oceanvodka and ʻawa from ʻAwa and ʻAi. Mahalo to @laurentrangmar for designing our flyer, @nickkurosawa for the live music and @datskor for the rad screen printing. Photos by @brandynliu #FLUXWealth #nmgnetwork

Pages of a kapa scrapbook collected by early missionaries, photographed by @john_hook in the ethnology collection at @bishopmuseum. Which of these are your favorite? #Kapa, known as tapa elsewhere in Polynesia, are hand-printed with designs and techniques unique to its island cultures. In #Hawaii, this paper-thin textile, made from the inner bark of wauke (the mulberry tree), dressed chiefs and commoners for centuries, utilized in ritual ceremonies, and provided comfort as bedspreads. From checkerboard to zig-zags, the designs on kapa come in a dizzying range, drawing on motifs found in #nature or possessing #sacred meanings known only by the kapa-master who fashioned them. #FLUXWealth #nmgnetwork
