A new venture during the pandemic has been HPS’s participation in the Kekaulike Internship Program through Native Hawaiian Student Services, University of Hawaiʻi. In summer 2021, we welcomed two haumāna from Kapiʻolani Community College, Tre Zamora and Rain Abero. As students in the Media Arts program, they will be helping develop strategies and content for HPS’s social media presence! Each brings their own unique specialties and skill sets to the table, and we are happy to provide them an opportunity to build new skills while we can support them in gaining more career experience as well as learninging more about their Hawaiian culture as they work with our kūpuna’s oral history footage. Be sure to follow HPS on Facebook & Instagram to see regular updates about the work they are doing with us.
