Covering the windows for Luau

Title

Covering the windows for Luau

Description

Two students with a ladder, by the windows of Washburn Hall during one of Pacific University's annual Lu'aus, probably in 1969 or 1970. They are covering the windows with paper to black them out for the Lu'au performances.

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.
