Haumana O Hawaii performers on stage

Title

Haumana O Hawaii performers on stage

Description

Performers from Pacific University's Haumana O Hawai'i (Hawaiian Club), possibly at a rehearsal for the annual Lu'au circa 1970. It is also possible that it was taken during an alternate Fall dance performance.

Pacific University began hosting an annual Lu'au in 1961. Student members of Na Haumana O Hawai'i (Hawaiian Club) organized and performed in the event, raising money for scholarships. The Lu'au included a dinner, sales of leis and other products flown in from Hawai'i, and performances of Pacific island dances. The Lu'au is normally held on the second Saturday in April in Washburne Hall. The name of the event was changed to Lu'au and Ho'ike in 2019.
