The Imin Center at Jefferson Hall was established in 1985 through contributions from individuals and groups in Hawaii and Japan to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Hawaii’s first Japanese contract workers called Kanyaku-imin. This building and those forming a semi-circle around it were designed by the internationally recognized architect I. M. Pei and completed in 1963.
