POW WOW 2013

sushisamba — Tue, 26 Feb 2013 21:15:52 +0000

Hawaii’s annual street and graffiti show, POW WOW (which took place mid-February) resulted in some amazing murals. Designed to bring artists together from across the globe, POW WOW provides a space for creative freedom, where people can watch artists in action. At the end of the week, walking through the neighborhood is like walking through an outdoor art gallery. POW WOW founders have certainly started an awesome, engaging show that has continually drawn in top artists. One of our favorites is the bird mural by DAL. For more on POW WOW, click here.
