Don't forget to attend the AAA HS Book Fair this weekend!
Make plans for an unforgettable evening of music, unity, and support as Northwest Arkansas artists Evan Diego Alvarado & Meredith Mashburn, in collaboration with the Haskell Foundation, present the Music & Moolah For Maui - Fundraiser!
Funds will support the indigenous Maui communities affected by the wildfires through the Olohana Foundation https://olohana.org/
Why Maui? The Maui area is tied to a documentary project that Evan and Meredith (Friends of AAA) are working on together, about a convergent science project (indigenous knowledge + modern science). The documentary is about the work Dr. Daniel Wildcat is leading at the Rising Voices Changing Coasts (RVCC) Hub at Haskell Indian Nations University (Lawrence, KS). Official RVCC site: https://www.rvcchub.org
