Eō mai! Kaʻiwakīloumoku Pacific Indigenous Institute is proud to present “Moananuiākea, A Voyage for Earth: Reclaiming the Sea Road to Alaska.” This in-person event will be held at Kaʻiwakīloumoku on the Kapālama campus on April 18, 2023, from 7:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. and will feature Liz Medicine Crow of Alaska, and a panel discussion with Master Navigators Nainoa Thompson and Bruce Blankenfeld, and also Apprentice Navigator Lehua Kamalu.
We’ll learn about the June 2023 launch of the Moananuiākea Voyage in Juneau, Alaska, as well as the lasting impact of spruce logs gifted in 1990 to build the voyaging canoe Hawaiʻiloa. A wide range of virtual learning resources for learners of all ages, including those that allow virtual participation in the Launch Celebration in June.
This event is a celebration of the enduring relationship between Hawaiʻi and the Tlingit, Haida, Tsimshian and other Alaska Native communities!
