Hawaiian History Lecture with Boyd Bond – “Prince Jonah Kūhiʻō, Whom We Celebrate on the 26th of March”

March 11, 2019 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Boyd Bond Portrait

Join us at the North Kohala Public Library on March 11 at 6:30 pm for the second installment of a three-part series on Hawaiian history. Boyd Bond will talk about Prince Jonah Kūhiʻō.

Jonah Kūhiʻō Kalanianaʻole, a nephew of Queen Kapiʻolani from Kauai, was one of the three designated heirs of both King David Kalākaua and Queen Liliʻuokalani, who never had the chance to rule following the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom. After a self-imposed exile, the Prince returned to be elected to the US Congress as a Hawaiʻi’s Territorial Representative, and was beloved by his people throughout his life. Join us to hear the tale of this amazing modern Aliʻi.

All programs are subject to change. If you require an auxiliary aid or accommodation due to a disability, please contact the library at least 7 days before the program date.
