Ingredients Hawaii Premiere



Become part of the possibility, which serves as a model of culturally-based food production that we can share with the world…This Saturday, catch the world premiere of Ingredients Hawaii-Part One at Mamiya Theater.

Ingredients Hawaii-Part One illustrates Oahu’s emerging local food community as an alternative to imported and processed foods. The film, narrated by Amy Hanaiali’i, tells the story of the ways in which the people of Hawaii are reclaiming their agriculture and local food traditions in light of an uncertain food future.

Chef Ed Kenney of Town Restaurant, Chef Mark Noguchi of Heeia Pier and Sweet Home Waimanalo will partner with farmers featured in the film to provide attendees with a taste of what the film is all about. Locally-inspired cocktails will also be served and farmers and organizations featured in the film will be on-hand to answer questions and educate guests on the work they are doing in their community.


An after-film discussion on the future of sustainable agriculture in Hawai‘i will be facilitated by the interns of MA`O Organic Farms. The second screening of Ingredients Hawaii will show at 9 p.m. for $10 pre-sale or $12 at the door. Discounted tickets of $5 for the second screening are available at the door for all students with a valid student ID.

Check out the trailer:

Arts For Education: Kawananakoa Middle

The Human Imagination – Prince David Kawananakoa Middle School from Supreme Video Productions on Vimeo.


During the month of February 2012, The Human Imagination presented artwork created by the seventh and eight graders of Prince David Kawananakoa Middle School. The exhibition, titled Value in the Role Model, showcased scratchboard art, which draws upon the students’ own research and interpretation of whom they see as role models; people that they can aspire to be, respect, draw inspiration from, and look up to. The portraits on display were a culmination of an arduous 5-week unit that primarily addressed “value” as one of the important elements of art. Special thanks to their teacher OJ Tambio for the opportunity to showcase the kids’ art.

It’s nice to see a program that inspires creativity and imagination outside of the confines of a classroom. These kids are amazingly talented, and we can’t wait to see where art takes them and what kinds of things the Arts For Education program cooks up next.
