Residents of the Kailapa Community, a Hawaiian Home Lands village right off the Kohala coast in Kawaihae, assembled to bless and unveil a new entrance sign on Saturday.

Native Hawaiian artist Brandi Malielani Nehls of Hilo, in collaboration with Daylon Nachor, created the 4×6’ foot concrete and chipped stained glass sign for the not-for-profit Kailapa Community Association.

After the unveiling, the community gathered to enjoy refreshments and talk story.
