2017 HISTORIC SITES OF HAWAI‘I: THE HISTORY OF LĀNA‘I - Part 3

In late 2015 and mid 2016 the State of Hawai‘i Department of Education engaged in development of a fil series to help inform students across the state about the history of Lāna‘i. In April 2017, the three part series, titles “Historic Sites of Hawai‘i — The History of Lāna‘i (Part 1); The History of Lāna‘i (Part 2)” and “Lāna‘i: Creating a Sustainable Island Community” was released. The film brings a depth of history not previously available in our classrooms to our island population, and shares a rich collection of traditions, history and modern experiences in the community, illustrated with interviews, maps, old photos and modern imagery. The Lāna‘i Culture & Heritage Center partnered with the DOE, producers and Pūlama Lāna‘i in development of this new series.
