About this episode
Earlier this month, the Utah Museum of Fine Arts opened the Tatau: Marks of Polynesia exhibit, which explores the art, tradition, and history of tatau (Samoan tattooing). Lead producer Emily Means talks with Verona Mauga, cofounder of the Pacific Islander advocacy organization Le Malu , about this tradition and its revival, as well as her own tatau experience. The exhibit runs through December. You can find out more and get tickets here . Subscribe to our daily morning newsletter . You can find us on Instagram @CityCastSLC and Twitter @CityCastSLC .
