More about us

These are poho kukui, traditional Hawaiian stone lamps once used by our kūpuna to bring light into the darkness. Carefully hollowed from stone—sometimes repurposed from worn-out pōhaku ku‘i ‘ai (poi pounders)—they held strands of roasted kukui nuts or a small amount of kukui nut oil with a wick.⁠
⁠
Like modern candles, they helped guide the way, both physically and spiritually. Each lamp tells a story of resourcefulness, mālama (care), and deep connection to the land.⁠

Want to learn more about the tools and traditions of our ancestors? Come visit us at the museum. We’re open Monday through Friday from 11am to 3pm. ⁠

Hunting has long been a favorite tradition on Lāna‘i. In fact, 3,626 ungulates have been removed from the landscape since our stewardship program started in July 2021.⁠
⁠
Pictured here in the early 1960s at a gun range, Lāna‘i Gun Club members practiced with pistols, rifles and shotguns. The club held year-round shooting competitions, including .22 rifle and pistol events. The popular Thanksgiving turkey shoot was a highlight.⁠

Hurricane season continues for a few more weeks. Nature reminds us to stay ready—and to remember the stories of those who came before us. After a powerful storm in 1959, the people of Lānaʻi came together with purpose and perseverance to protect their island home. From that effort, Mānele Small Boat Harbor was born—not just as a harbor, but as a symbol of what can happen when a community stands united. This harbor holds more than water—it holds memories. ⁠

During the plantation days, Lānaʻi City Band was more than just music as it brought the community together through songs. Their music lifted spirits, celebrated life and strengthened the bond of community, connection and hometown pride.⁠

Lānaʻi, the sixth largest island in the Hawaiian archipelago. Long ago, Lānaʻi was once a part of Maui, Molokaʻi and Kahoʻolawe - connected by low-lying land bridges, all part of a shared ʻohana formed from the same volcanic heart. All were born of a single volcano some 1.5 million years ago, rising from the ocean to become a home for life and legends of lava-strewn landscapes, windswept ridges and storied shorelines. We’re all connected.⁠

Kānepuʻu Preserve flourishes as a living treasure of Lāna‘i and one of Hawai‘i’s last remaining dryland forests. We give thanks to The Nature Conservancy and KS Kaiāulu for its support of this intiative. More than 50 volunteers helped last Saturday to help nurture and protect this special place.

Ka Lanakila Church in historic Keōmoku Village was once the heart of a thriving community. This is now the last wooden structure standing. Built in 1903 by Hawaiian families and restored with care, this church stands in memory of a community that is not forgotten on Lāna‘i.

Stop by our museum to get one of these and support a great cause. Every purchase helps preserve the history, traditions and stories of Lāna‘i through our community-based programs. We’re open Monday through Friday from 11 am to 3 pm. All sales are in person only — sorry, we don’t ship. ⁠
