The Kilohana Art League was formed in 1894 as Honolulu’s first art association. On May 5, 1894,[1] the woodcarver Augusta Graham, the sculptor Allen Hutchinson, and painters D. Howard Hitchcock and Annie H. Park[3] created a forum where local artists could exhibit together and share ideas.[4] Other members included Alfred Richard Gurrey, Sr.[5] and Bessie Wheeler.[6]

“Kilohana’’ is a compound word derived from two Hawaiian language words: kilo meaning to observe carefully or to spy out, and hana, meaning work.[3] The Kilohana Art League was disbanded in 1913, and its funds were transferred to the Outdoor Circle.[7]

Organization

The League was organized into sub-organizations known as "circles", such as the Pictorial and Plastic Circle of the Kilohana Art League,[8] the Dramatic Circle of the Kilohana Art League,[8] the Musical Circle of the Kilohana Art League,[9] the Literary Circle of the Kilohana Art League,[10] and the Outdoor Circle of the Kilohana Art League.[11]

gollark: It's just very hot and big, and doesn't produce coherent light.

gollark: It is not, technically, a *laser*, as far as I know.

gollark: If you were at the centre of the moon or something, that would probably work somewhat as thermal shielding just because of how big those things are, so it would at least take a while for enough heat to reach you that it'd be a problem.

gollark: I wonder if you could somehow "skim" through the upper layers of the sun with a ridiculously large amount of mass to ablate and probably some stupidly high velocity.

gollark: A crater, probably, depending on how large it is.
