Welcome to Hui Pohaku ‘O Hawai‘i the website of the Rock and Mineral Society of Hawai‘i
Established in 1970, the Rock & Mineral Society
of Hawai'i, Inc. is a non-profit, educational organization dedicated
to mineral and rock collecting and appreciation and the lapidary arts.
Hui Pohaku meets on the 4th Wednesday of each month (except for adjusted
dates in November and December) at the Makiki District Park in Honolulu
from 7:00 - 9:00 pm. Please enter the parking lot from Ke'e'aumoku Street.
Parking is free but limited, due to the frequented tennis courts
and skateboard facilities in the park. There is also often parking available
on the other side of the park next to the community gardens, if you know
the area.
Lapidary classes are normally held on Thursday Evenings from 7:00-9:00
pm and are open to all members.
If you park in the (ewa) parking lot next to the tennis court walk mauka towards the buildings in the park (see map below). Take the walkway between the first two buildings and you see a smaller building in the back slightly to the left. Turn left to the adminstative building on the ewa side and the door takes you directly into the building on the ground flooor. The meeting of Hui Pohaku is in the smaller room inside the administative building a bit more in the back to the left.
Sometimes, when this room is not available, we also meet in the other small building on the Diamond Head side.
