Noʻu Revilla in The Green Room

Thursday, June 4, 2026, 5:30 PM: Hui No’eau Visual Arts Center  Maui, HI

The Merwin Conservancy presents a reading with poet Noʻu Revilla—who will be in residence at The Conservancy this spring—as part of their Green Room program series.

Born and raised on the island of Maui, Noʻu Revilla prioritizes aloha, gratitude, and collaboration in her practice. She is the author of Ask the Brindled, a National Poetry Series selection and winner of the Balcones Prize. Her work appears in World Literature Today, Michigan Quarterly Review, Lit Hub, Split This Rock, and elsewhere. Her poems have been adapted for dance, theater, and film productions throughout Oceania, and her poetry film Nānā i ke kumu was selected for the Smithsonian’s Mother Tongue Film Festival in 2026. Noʻu served as poetry faculty for Indigenous Nations Poets, facilitated poetry workshops at Puʻuhuluhulu University while standing with her lāhui to protect Maunakea, and teaches creative writing at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa. She lives with her wife near the rippling waters of Kaʻelepulu.

This program was made possible through generous support from our Green Room Patrons & Hosts.
