Eō e ka ʻohana Kamehameha! Join us next Tuesday, November 8, from 6:00 to 8:30 pm for a special free screening of ‘Whetū Mārama: Bright Star.’ This special film from Aotearoa (New Zealand) tells the story of the late Sir Hekenukumai Ngāiwi Pūhipi, aka Hek Busby, and his role in rekindling Māori wayfinding.

Sir Hector was a long-time friend of Kamehameha Schools, a confidant and mentor of Nainoa Thompson, and a guiding elder of KS’ ʻAha Moananuiākea Pacific Consortium. Bring your ʻohana, enjoy light refreshments, and meet the directors of the film to learn about the special Moananuiākea connections Hawaiʻi and Kamehameha Schools have to this wonderful hero.
