Ke Alaula is scheduled on Saturdays, 2–3:30 p.m., and will feature photographers from the exhibition alongside experts who will explore themes of photography, archiving and the historic struggles over water diversion in Waiāhole.

“An exhibition is never enough,” said Kapulani Landgraf, director of Gallery ʻIolani. “Ke Alaula provides a place and space to hear directly and engage with The OGs and others about the impact their lifeʻs works have played on Hawaiʻi.”
Gallery ʻIolani hours are Monday through Saturday, 1–5 p.m., and is located adjacent to Palikū Theatre at Windward CC.
