Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life. Behold, I am coming quickly! Hold fast what you have, that no one may
take your crown. Revelation 2:10b, 3:11

ILINA WAI (“ground-spring” or “underground stream”) is a Hawai‘i

Bilingual sponsored monthly, moving spiritual and artistic vigil that began on
April 30, 2009 at Mauna ‘Ala (the Royal Mausoleum) and will be observed at
the end of each month until an Official Languages Act similar to Canada's and
Ireland's is adopted by the Hawai‘i State Legislature, effectively confirming an
end of the era of Hawaiian cultural genocide.

Cultivation of Honolulu’s bilingual creative culture is instrumental in

articulating Hawai‘i Bilingual’s vision, and since members of the Honolulu
Symphony (America’s oldest symphonic society west of the Mississippi River)
have endured more than four months without pay, and several members have
already quit, PŌ ILINA WAI will increase Hawaiian bilingual English –
Hawaiian social & cultural awareness among and beyond the Hawaiian
speaking community while supporting Honolulu’s professional musical society
by holding monthly bilingually presented chamber music concerts. Attendees
will bring a portable chair and drinks to share to Fresh Café at 831 Queen
Street in Kaka‘ako, where ample free parking is available. $15 tickets to this
event may be purchased at Fresh Café prior to the gathering.
