Kaka'ako
Kaka'ako, Honolulu, HI, USA
Once-forgotten warehouse district reborn as an open-air gallery of large-scale murals by global street artists.
This guide to Kakaako in Honolulu follows Jasper Wong, an artist who looked at this stretch of forgotten warehouses and auto shops in 2010 and saw untapped potential. It traces the unusual offer he and fellow artist Kamea Hadar made to property owners, to paint their walls for free, and how that deal grew into Pow Wow Hawaii. Walk the side streets slowly; the murals range from Hawaiian legends of star-crossed lovers to a nostalgic tribute to Elvis's Hawaii.
