John “Prime” Hina is a legend in the local aerosol arts scene. Prime has spent the last six years running 808 Urban, an organization that mentors at-risk youth through urban art. Prime has found a highly effective way of steering youth from the dangers inherent in growing up in at-risk neighborhoods and turning them into community-minded artists and cultural workers. His unique method of youth development is rooted in the art of graffiti muralism, a visual vocabulary of the streets that he has harnessed as a cultural tool for positive social change. Prime has created over 100 public murals and coordinated numerous public art events on Oahu.

Dates & Times Scheduled on a First-Come-First-Served Basis
The Stickwork sculpture is more than a beautiful work of art- it represents a well thought-out process of preserving our native Hawaiian forests and making a difference as a team. Bring your class to the Hui to join Hui teaching artists and MISC educators as we use the visual arts as a means of understanding the importance of protecting our natural island resources. Choose from projects like Form Changing Flip Books (to take home with you at the end of class), that illustrate the rate of introduction of different plants and insects to our Hawaiian islands or contribute to the Hui Ho`ololi Mural (to remain on Hui grounds), which illustrates the different tree species used in Dougherty’s sculpture, as well as colorful components of the country’s culture from which they derive.
Fee: $10 per student/ 10-student minimum.
