This limited-edition blue craft beer is a collaboration with Map Travel, an award-winning Japanese travel agency with ties to the Hawaiian islands. They hope to raise awareness for Mizushima, a small island in Japan that draws comparisons with Hawai’i due to the clear waters and white sands.
While beautiful, this island suffers from an influx of ocean plastic pollution washing onto its shores. Portions of each sale will go towards beach clean-ups in both Mizushima and Hawai’i, as well as Maui recovery efforts after the devastating 2023 wildfires.

Shirts, water bottles, totes, and more for Laulima.
Laulima is a company that aims to raise awareness of native Hawaiian flora and fauna through beautiful and thoughtful goods.
More about this collaboration from Laulima’s site:
Kāhuli (Hawaiian land snails) are some of the rarest creatures on Earth. Once common throughout the Hawaiian Islands, less than half of the original 750+ species remain today. This print aims to raise awareness of kāhuli and advocate for their protection. Made in collaboration with artist Kim Sielbeck, this print showcases nine endemic species that each represent their home island(s): Hiona pilsbryi (Kauaʻi), Laminella sanguinea (Oʻahu), Lyropupa striatula (Maui), Succinea konaensis (Hawaiʻi), Newcombia canaliculata (Molokaʻi), Partulina variabilis (Lānaʻi), Carelia sinclairi (Niʻihau), Pleuropoma laciniosa kahoolawensis (Kahoʻolawe), and Endodonta christenseni (Northwestern Hawaiian Islands).

Mural and marketing materials for Kapolei Comons in Kapolei, HI.
Kupuna pass on the history of the Kingdom of Hawai'i to keiki, Hula dancers tell stories through dance, and musicians weave these stories and their own into song. There are families who spend time together, making each other laugh from generation to generation, there are surfers who spend time trying to catch waves off the south shore. By painting this mural, I hope we can come together to celebrate how wonderful it is to be surrounded by such a rich and vibrant community, and to have Kapolei in common.
