One of the heralds and preservers of traditional Hawaiian culture, George Kahumoku, Jr. is an artist, musician, composer, farmer, storyteller and teacher. As a musician he is best known for playing a 12 string slack key guitar, but his immersion in teaching and promoting the Hawaiian way of life extends far beyond his music. His educational history gives some hint of his range -- he is a 1969 graduate of the Kamehameha Schools, a 1973 graduate of the Oakland, CA-based College of Arts and Crafts, where he earned a BFA in sculpture, and a 1993 graduate of the Hawaii State Ag-Leadership Program.
