The tile murals on the wall of the
United Public Workers (UPW) Union's building is a creation by
Jean Charlot the famous french painter. Although at first glance, I once thought it was created by Mexican painter
Diego Rivera. Located in Kalihi on School Street, it is another one of Honolulu's little treasures for all to freely enjoy. It worth seeking out since it is a block or two and walking distance from the Bishop Museum. The art depicts hard labor as it recognizes blue collar workers who are usually the unsung heroes of the community. A bunch of young volunteers were laboring in the area by picking up trash, and they walked in between the mural and my shutter for this picture.
