Wayfinding Festival

October 29, 2017 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

Honor the art, science and culture of oceanic navigation at ʻImiloa's Tenth Annual Wayfinding Festival! This year’s theme, Bringing Home Lessons of the Worldwide Voyage, will feature a special panel discussion with crewmembers from the recently completed Mālama Honua Worldwide Voyage, along with exciting wa‘a (canoe) activities themed around Hawai‘i’s iconic double-hulled sailing canoe, Hōkūleʻa.

Come learn about the epic 3-year journey of Hōkūleʻa, which traveled 42,000 nautical miles, visiting 150 ports in more than 20 countries, while training a new generation of navigators, educators, scientists and community stewards.

The festival will also include fun keiki activities and special wayfinding planetarium presentations for all ages!

Wayfinding Festival is sponsored by the Ama OluKai Foundation.
