Scientist conducting maintenance on solar panel and seismic instrument among green foliage

Come talk story with USGS Hawaiian Volcano Observatory chief field engineer Kevan Kamibayashi as he hosts a table from 1:00–4:00 p.m. at the Nāʻālehu Public Library. Do you have questions about the Kīlauea summit eruption, volcanic hazards, how eruptions are monitored, or what it’s like working for a volcano observatory? Kevan, who has worked for the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory for over 25 years, will be available to answer those questions and more. Come talk story, browse resources, and learn more about the volcanoes in your backyard.

Suitable for all ages.

Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication, or a modification of policies or procedures to participate in a program, service, or activity should contact library staff as soon as possible. Advance requests 48 hours or more before the event are encouraged, but not required. All programs are subject to change. See a schedule of upcoming events on the HSPLS Events Calendar.
