Upcoming events at this branch

Want to give your Mom something special? Pahala will have beautiful watercolor, coffee filter flowers to give away at Pahala Public & School Library & Na’alehu Public Library.

Available both Thursday, May 9th and Friday, May 10th while supply lasts. Limited to 1 flower per person.

All flowers will be pre-made. No customization possible. We apologize as watercolor  takes several hours to dry.
*Our flowers will most likely use floral stem wire instead of the green pipe cleaner shown in our sample image.
