Christmas came early to ‘Ulu‘ulu this year as we’ve recently acquired the KITV Collection which includes programming and news footage of events like the Merrie Monarch Festival and specials like The Don Ho Christmas Show.
The Don Ho Christmas Show (1967), KITV Collection
Preserving and archiving this footage is important because it informs future generations and researchers about trends and cultural and political events from different time periods in Hawaiʻi. We are excited to have this material in our collection.
The archives will be closed during the UH West Oahu Winter Break starting December 17 and will reopen on January 2, 2013.
Whatever your ʻohana’s traditions — Happy Holidays from the ‘Ulu‘ulu crew!
