Celebrating Sunday, July 26th, 2026
at Thomas Square Park
Lā Hoʻihoʻi Ea
A month-long celebration of Ea and the restoration of Hae Hawaiʻi
2026 LHE Honorees
Each year, we honor members of our community who have dedicated their lives to standing firm for Ea. This year, we celebrate James Kimo Mitchell and George Jarrett Helm Jr. as we commemorate 50 Years On Kahoʻolawe. We invite you to learn more about their lives and legacies by reading their biographies and reflecting on the vision they helped shape for Hawaiʻi.
2026 Programming
The full day-of schedule of activities, mele, and programming is now online. Below is a preview of LHE's events, but be sure to check out the Schedule Page for details on panels, speakers, artist, and more! Looking forward to seeing you at the park.
