Hawai'i Plantation Museum Today
|
Today the Hawaii Plantation Museum can be found in the old historic plantation store built in 1900 by the Onomea Sugar Company.
In 1950, the plantation sold the store to Shigeru Yoshiyama a worker in the store and renamed to S. Yoshiyama Store until 1997.
In 2013 the Yoshiyama Store became the Hawaii Plantation Museum. Located at 27-246 Old Mamalahoa Highway in Papa'ikou, Hawai'i.
The museum is rich in history outlining the establishment of the sugar plantation era and how the sugar industry gave rise to Hawai’i’s multi-cultural heritage. From wall-to-wall the museum is filled with a enormous collection of old signs, bottles, newspapers, photos, a telephone booth, restaurant booth, Pete Beamer's buggy, baseball uniforms and much more.
The mission of our museum is to exhibit, preserve, and promote the culture and lifestyle of the old Hawai'i plantation era.
