Please join the UAA Multicultural Center and the Polynesian Association of Alaska
in welcoming Te Vaka to Alaska. Te Vaka is a unique group of ten musicians and dancers from Tokelau, Tuvalu,
Samoa, Cook Islands and New Zealand brought together under the inspired leadership
of Opetaia Foa'i, one of New Zealand's finest songwriters. Te Vaka has been wowing
international audiences with upbeat, positive music since 1997, presenting a rich,
luscious mix of Polynesia's ancient culture to the modern world. They were named "Best
Pacific music group in the world" by the BBC.
