The 5th Annual Estria Invitational Graffiti Battle will bring together twelve of Hawaii's top artists for a one day battle to see who rises above the rest. The battle has already been to New York and Los Angeles, with Honolulu being the final stop before the grand finale. The first and second place winners from each city will advance to Oakland, CA for the final battle.

Along with the art battle, there will be a variety of workshops on the history of graffiti, calligraphy, graphic design, a T-shirt stencil workshop and a blackbook battle. There will also be performances by local youth poets, breakdancers, DJ’s, and more.

This free family event goes down this Saturday form 12pm-7pm at the Honolulu Academy of Arts (1111 Victoria Street, Honolulu, HI).
