Storyteller Statue

TIME : 2016/2/18 12:02:58

This bronze statue just off Kalakaua Ave represents 'The Storytellers', the keepers of Hawaiian culture. For centuries, women have been at the top of Hawaiian oral traditions, and the storytellers preserve the identity of their people and land by reciting poems, songs, chants and genealogies. The Storyteller's brother-statue is the Water Giver statue at the Hawaiian Convention Center.
