SUMMARY:Tea & Treasures: May 30
DESCRIPTION:\n\nDiscover History’s Hidden Treasures. Step behind the velvet rope for an exclusive afternoon at Hawaiian Mission Houses. This premium program offers guests an intimate, 3-hour journey with privileged access to rarely-seen archival treasures from our collection, presented in a white-glove viewing by our resident archivist, Kyle Hart.\nIn an intimate session, guests explore original pieces from one of the world’s largest collections of Hawaiian-language printed material. You’ll see firsthand how the written Hawaiian language took root — and why the aliʻi embraced literacy so swiftly — gaining real context for the missionaries’ 1820 arrival and the cultural exchange that followed.\nThe experience extends beyond the library. A walking tour of the grounds and the traditional hale pili grounds the history in place, while a hands-on turn at the historic printing press — guided by Director of Education Mike Smola — connects you directly to the birthplace of Hawaiian-language printing.\nThe afternoon closes with traditional high tea by award-winning Tea at 1024.\nAll of it is included in a single $150 ticket for this intimate gathering on Saturday, May 30, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.\nSeats are LIMITED.

Post-event surveys returned overwhelmingly positive feedback, with attendees rating the overall experience a perfect 5 out of 5.\nGuests praised both the depth of historical content and the warmth of the hospitality:\n“What a surprisingly fun and enriching experience,” wrote one attendee. “The interaction with the staff and the archival material was informative and truly moving! The tea and accompanying sandwiches were very tasty. It was a wonderful experience.”\n
