Overview

Join a hands-on workshop with celebrated Maui jewelry artist Mona Lisa and uncover the secrets of her craft. Set in a stunning art gallery, this immersive experience offers a fun and accessible introduction to jewelry making. You’ll learn about exquisite pearls—from Tahitian and Akoya to Keshi and Edison pearls—and the differences between freshwater and saltwater varieties. Dive into the fascinating history of this timeless Hawaiian tradition while picking up a few Hawaiian words as you bead your own necklace.

Mona Lisa provides a prepared jewelry kit with all the materials you need—wire, beads, and supplies—to create one beautiful piece or multiple stunning designs. If you need extra materials, she’ll have options on hand to keep your inspiration flowing.
