The, and the PA'I Foundation and the Hale Ku‘ai Cooperative are sponsoring the Native Hawaiian Cultural Trademark Study, compiling (in a report) the artist's responses, and would like more participation to ensure that the broadest range of ideas and opinions from the Native Hawaiian artist community are expressed before the next phase of the process begins.

We know that taking a survey may seem humbug, maybe a waste of time.
Some have said they don't like how the questions are worded, and others have commented that the answers don't always fit.

However, we are still asking artisans to make the effort to take the survey.
The survey is about Hawaiians trying to help Hawaiians--specifically artisans---to get the support they need based upon their direct input.

A portion of the questions are about a Native Hawaiian Cultural Trademark, but the survey is about how you learned your craft, what your goals are, can you make a living at your art, and if not, why? The study asks what kind of assistance you need? The long term goal is to implement processes and programs to aid in the support, perpetuation and promotion of native Hawaiian art and artisans.

We also have the ability to provide any artisan with a hard copy version of the study if they do not have access to a computer with a connection to the world wide web.We are also easy to contact via e-mail or phone, and will assist you in any way to submit your mana'o! Remember you can also head to your nearest local library and log-on to the internet and take the survey!!!
