A rather unknown person with a unique fate who lived on Peacock Island almost 200 years ago was the Hawaiian Harry Maitey. Who was he and how did he end up on Peacock Island? What traces did his life leave behind? The association "No ka Hoʻomanaʻo Ana Ia Berlin e.V." is organizing a special tribute to Harry Maitey.
The hula kahiko "He mele no Harry Maitey" (A song for Harry Maitey) is a narrative dance in the "old" style of hula, which goes back to the traditions before contact with Europeans. Since 2012, the association has been accompanied and supported by several Hawaiian Kumu (teachers) in the cultivation of Hawaiian traditions. In addition, it is committed to the traditional and contemporary culture of Hawai'i in accordance with the Kumu Hula who care for and support it, thus fostering intercultural exchange with Hawai'i.Translated with DeepL
