Pasifika Artists Exchange (PAE) Culmination is a devised theatre work created by the PAE ensemble showcasing Pasifika artistry and talents.

Pasifika Artists Exchange is a program focused on enriching, enhancing, and advancing Pasifika Arts & Performance. This culmination features devised ensemble theatre work created during a week-long residency with Pasifika artists exchanging stories and creative expressions. Ensemble members are trained under lead artists Misa Tupou , Kathy Martin, and Kiki Rivera.

We are excited to present our PAE Ensemble: Mariana “MG” Green, Gideon Lorete, Esther Navarro, Niglmoro Okuk, & Napoleon Tavale.

Pae in ‘Ōlelo Hawai’i means to cluster, group or to land or come ashore. This program hopes to pae our Pasifika Artist community in a time where our cultures, lands, and peoples are most needed and beneficial to the future we are forging.
