XLARGE's Involvement in Hawaii Walls 2025
From September 15 to 21, 2025, XLARGE, the renowned streetwear brand developed by Bead International based in Meguro, Tokyo, served as an official sponsor for the sizable public art festival, Hawaii Walls 2025, held at Farrington High School in the Kalii district of Honolulu. This annual event, which showcases international muralists, saw participation from over 50 artists from Hawaii and around the world. Each mural on display not only acts as a canvas but embodies the rich creativity, culture, and community spirit of the region, transforming the school into one of Hawaii's largest outdoor galleries.
The Hawaii Walls event aims to beautify public spaces through collective artistry, encouraging cultural exchanges and community engagement. XLARGE utilized the festival's conceptual color, Mochamuse, as inspiration to create a collaborative T-shirt design that was given to on-site staff and participating artists. This initiative underscores XLARGE's commitment to vibrant street culture and community involvement. Photographs capturing the electric atmosphere and artistic virtues will accompany the article, showcasing the spectacular transformation of the high school environment.
A Proud Display of Artistic Passion
The participating artists, including well-known figures like Cryptek, DeeDee, and Tristan Eaton, transformed the surroundings into an exhibition of talent and creativity. The festival emphasized the importance of collaboration—not just among artists but also with local students and residents, driving a participatory spirit that is integral to the community.
Apart from murals, the festival offered interactive workshops and discussions, allowing art enthusiasts to engage directly with creators and gain insights into their inspirations and techniques. This educational facet greatly enhances the cultural fabric of the area, making art more accessible and relatable.
Future Events: Japan Walls 2025
Following the excitement of Hawaii Walls, the next significant project in this international street art initiative will be Japan Walls 2025 in Shirahama, Wakayama. Scheduled to run from October 27 to November 2, 2025, this event will mark several key anniversaries: the 25th year of the sister beach partnership between Waikiki and Shirarahama, the 10th anniversary of Japan Walls, and the fifth anniversary of events held in Shirahama. This promises to be an exhilarating showcase of art and cultural exchange.
XLARGE looks forward to contributing again as a sponsor, engaging local communities, and promoting the vibrant spirit of street culture through innovative fashion and art initiatives.
