While attendees eat, mingle, and imbibe, four artists will showcase their work and explain their proposed public art project. After the four presenters are finished, attendees vote on which artist's project they wish to award the prize. Support the artists by joining us:

Presenting Artists

The November 9th FEAST will be founded in storytelling. We have four amazing teamspresenting their ideas to share the stories of their communities through their artwork:

Art & Shenanigans Committeeis a collection of individuals devoted to political activism in the form of artful public performance. Their tactics most often incorporate satire, absurdity, and silliness to address serious social concerns. Theyproduce action accessories,wearable protest art, puppets, percussion instruments, and performances.
Emily and Rob Lauare a brother-sister storytelling duo, whowere both raised in Hawaiʻi, and come from human ecology and literature backgrounds. Theysee videos as a unique format that can capture the poetics of everyday life.
Chris Ritsonis a media-artist whosepractice is informed by our relationship to nature, and ranges from video and installation, to biological and chemically generative sculpture.MichelleBroder Van Dykeis a Hawaii-based journalist, currently serving as the Night Editor for BuzzFeed News.
The Playground Art Crewwas founded by Jeff Kaneta in August 2016. Their missionis to inspire creativity in students through providing art supplies and lessons.
