Hāna Cultural Center & Museum
Hāna, East Maui
A Volunteer-Run Hāna Museum, Admission by Donation
The Hāna Cultural Center & Museum, at 4974 Uakea Road in Hāna, is a small volunteer-run museum and gift shop on Hāna's history and traditions. HAWAIʻI Magazine's 2026 Readers' Choice voters ranked it No. 3 among Maui museums. A Hāna directory lists normal opening hours of Wednesday and Friday 10 AM–3 PM, with other times by arrangement; one guide shows weekday hours instead, and another page carries an older pandemic-closure notice, so hours are unreliable. Admission is described variously as a donation or free.
Current status (checked October 10, 2026): the center's own website says the museum and gift shop are not open for regular hours but can be opened on request for special visits, and next to its Wednesday and Friday 10 AM–3 PM hours it says the museum remains closed. The site's footer is dated 2017 and it has no storm or reopening notice. Call (808) 446-2967 before making a special trip.
