Excerpts from the opening ceremony

To celebrate the opening of the exhibition, representatives of the Tongva/Gabrieleno, an indigenous group from the Los Angeles area, welcomed the brilliantly covered garments, headdresses and lei to their land. Dancers from the renwoned Hula Halau ‘O Lilinoe, Na Pua Me Kealoha, performed a Kahiko (ancient hula).
