It’s one of the most photogenic buildings in Honolulu, with its columns and courtyard and whatever you call those second-floor indoor lanais.
But views like these are breathtaking too, especially because of what these shelves hold. It’s the Language, Literature, and History section, where all the big, important stuff of life is. Love and war, life and death, good and evil, Nikon and Canon.
And our host, Emily. 🙂
Thursday, August 6
5:00 to 6:50
The Hawaii State Library
Language, Literature, and History section
Enter the building, go to the left wing and head straight back. You’ll find Emily and your book-loving friends.
Mix, mingle, and chat! We’ll do some quick voluntary photos to show off what everyone is reading, then read quietly for a blissful hour.
The library closes at 7, so come a little early if you’d like to browse and browse and browse and browse.
Parking: Metered spots are available all around the library. Street parking’s free at 6:00.
The Iolani Palace lot is super close and secure. It also becomes free at 6:00, when they shut the gate. If you need to bail before 7:00, just flag down a security guard and they’ll let you out.
Forget your book? No sweat! You’re in a giant building filled with them. Grab something off the shelf and maybe even take a new friend home with your library card.
We can’t wait to read with you. So bring a friend! The more the merrier!
