About

Welcome to the Laupahoehoe Public and School Library! Designed by Richard S. Matsunaga and Associates, we opened in 1973 but earthquake damage closed us for nearly a year. We reopened in 1974 on the campus of the Laupahoehoe Community Public Charter School. We are one of the few Hawaii Island libraries to offer a meeting room for public use.

Leave a special message for the library for years to come on our Laupāhoehoe Library Memory Cloth. The library will provide the art supplies (markers). We ask that each person is limited to one shape per person so everyone has a chance to leave their mark please.

This is a free program. We ask that children please be accompanied by a parent/guardian.
