Placemaking
Youth Development • Arts Education • Cultural Preservation • Community Building
The Estria Foundation creates public spaces that promote culture, community, history and positivity across the State of Hawaiʻi. Each wall tells a different story, or different song that students choose. We then translate that into a visual image and teach students how to paint it on that wall.
