The Hale Halewai Mural project was started during winter break 2003. The mural is entitled Birds of Paradise and was designed and supervised by Michelle Obregon, an instructor at Konawaena High. The mural was funded by Healing Our Island Community Grant with the assistance of Family Support services of West Hawaii. The mural celebrates the beauty of Hawaii's endemic and introduced species of birds, highlighting the endangered Nene and Hawaiian Crow. During winter break, students from Konawaena High School and Kealekehe Intermediate School helped with the mural, along with adults from Kona Kraft and the Community Federal Credit Union. The community mural provided local youth an opportunity to work with an artist, learning how to paint an outdoor mural and to participate in a beautification project
