share
Over a year into the COVID-19 pandemic, people are continuing to adapt and figure out how to pull off large scale events in the virtual world. The Pacific Islander’s club (PIC) took its annual Lūʻau from the floor of Viking Pavilion to Zoom on May 15.
“It was definitely a challenge due to everything being remote,” said Maile Sumile, the PIC treasurer and one of the choreographers and dancers at the Lūʻau. “In my opinion, the vibes are completely different when you go to a Lūʻau in person versus watching it through a screen.”
