Join us during Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month for a documentary about the power of art through the unlikely union of graffiti and ancient Hawaiian culture.

Join us during Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month for a documentary about the transformative power of art through the unlikely union of graffiti and ancient Hawaiian culture. At the center of this story are the artists Estria Miyashiro (aka Estria) and John Hina (aka Prime), and a group of Native Hawaiian youth from the rural community of Waimea, HI. Together they create a mural that addresses the ill effects of environmental changes and encroaching modernization on their native culture.
