On October 15, 2021, PLC led the production and roll-out of the Fall 2021 #808Reads Statewide Challenge, which fosters independent reading, family engagement, and a culture of literacy. In partnership with the HI*Sessions audio and video team, PLC produced and promoted the pre-recorded event that was filmed at Ko‘olau Ballrooms and Conference Center. HI*Sessions is Hawai‘i’s premiere social media platform that exists to promote local music and artists on a global stage. With almost four-hundred-thousand subscribers, two-million views per month, and 140 artists on their Youtube channel, HI*Sessions has become the online music source for the state of Hawai‘i. The Fall 2021 production features host Lacy Deniz (news anchor for Hawai‘i News Now), The Band Imua (music artist), and award winning author, Tae Keller (authored When You Trap a Tiger). On September 10, 2021, we filmed the first shoot at Ko‘olau Ballrooms and Conference Center. On that day, we also filmed Kalena DeLima in preparation for our Spring 2022 #808Reads Statewide Reading Challenge. Click here to view the Fall 2021 program. Due to the pandemic restrictions, the SY 21–22 program was pre-recorded and disseminated via UH and HIDOE social media platforms.
