Hanafuda Hawai’i is about using games to teach young people and to keep the minds of the elderly active and engaged. A friendship circle to learn and share the game with others of all ages and bring generations together.

Drop-in classes that welcome novice to advanced-level students! Teachers are on hand to guide you.

* Prize Table Day is on the last class of the month. If you would like to donate to the prize table, please bring your items on those days only.
