Volunteer Day: Ka Lanakila Church at Keōmoku
Lānaʻi Culture and Heritage Center
Volunteer with Lāna‘i Culture & Heritage Center to work and preserve the historic Ka Lanakila Church at Keōmoku. The church was built in 1903 and was in regular use until 1951 when the last of the Keōmoku community moved to the uplands of Lāna‘i. Lāna‘i Culture & Heritage Center restored and stabilized the church between 2010-2012 and installed educational signage to ensure this important piece of Lāna‘i’s history would not be lost.

About the organizer

This non-profit heritage organization seeks to inspire people to be informed, thoughtful and active stewards of Lāna‘i’s heritage by preserving, interpreting and celebrating its natural history, Hawaiian traditions, diverse heritage and cultures, and ranching and plantation era histories. Over the last thirteen years, more than 120,000 people (residents and visitors) have participated in interpretive-educational programs in the museum and field. With the support of many partners, Lānaʿi CHC has engaged in stewardship of bio-cultural resources, developed platforms for accessing the history of Lānaʿi, and supported cultural literacy and place-based educational initiatives on Lānaʿi and across the state.
