    JCCK BACKGROUND
    Over one hundred years after the first generation of Japanese immigrants settled on the upland slopes and helped to build a premier coffee industry, a group of Kona residents coalesced to pursue a dream of developing a new Cultural Center to celebrate their ancestral heritage. Our beloved issei started from humble beginnings as coffee farmers and left a legacy that has evolved into a distinctive community which blends Japanese traditions and the spirit of Aloha.

    The Cultural Center is envisioned as a singular destination that will showcase Japanese-American contributions to the diversity that is Hawaii. It is meant to be a gathering place to share and perpetuate our culture, provide opportunities to maintain ties with today’s Japan, and provide facilities that can be enjoyed by the broader Kona community.
