An unforgettable weekend at the @national_mural_awards and @hagerfest in Maryland. The Goodness Tour cofounders Jeremiah and Benjamin proudly represented the crew while jumping into local arts programming, including this incredible live collaboration painted across the side of a mobile graffiti RV owned by legendary graffiti artist and cultural ambassador @bookofjedidiah . We proudly carried the spirit of the Pacific Palisades with us and continue to celebrate the community for welcoming us in to create a collaborative mural alongside @teammollyofficial @wckitchen and @vistapaint . This award belongs to everyone who picked up a brush, shared a story, or showed up with heart. This includes the incredible @1440multiversity , without their generous support and belief in our mission, this project would not have been possible. Much love and happy Tuesday! #thegoodnesstour #pacificpalisades #nationalmuralawards #hagerstown #communityart

14 new murals. One transformed downtown experience🎨✨ Over the past two weeks, artists from across the country brought new energy, color, and creativity to #downtownhagerstown through the 2026 National Mural Awards and Hagerfest Music & Art Festival. From alleyways and building walls to the Cultural Trail and Meritus Park, these murals now tell stories, spark conversation, and create new moments of discovery throughout the Arts & Entertainment District. What was once a blank wall is now a destination, a photo opportunity, a landmark, and a reminder that public art has the power to transform spaces and bring people together. Thank you to every artist, property owner, sponsor, volunteer, partner, and community member who helped make this vision possible. Downtown Hagerstown continues to evolve as a place where creativity lives out loud💛 Now it’s time to explore all 14 murals for yourself in downtown! #hagerstown #mural #publicart

@hagerfest was something special. From spinning for the graffiti battle to watching incredible artists create in real time, the whole day felt alive with creativity. The sets were pure feeling — Nore brought that soul and instinct, Minus Nine turned turntablism into a whole experience, and I got to close it out with a little journey through my own roots. Hearing music that connects to childhood, hip hop, and movement all in one place? That’s the kind of thing that stays with you. Big love to everyone making Hagerstown shine. I was honored to DJ at the closing party at @hubcitybrewery . Were I took the entire audience through over 32 genres of music and when I tell you it was an absolute vibe those are one of the gigs that felt good for the soul This one has real momentum. Don’t sleep on next year.

We dedicate this award to both the Pacific Palisades and Altadena for your courageous choice to transform the horrifying crisis into an opportunity to come together and create anew. Thank you for opening your hearts and shifting the narratives by painting masterpieces, writing songs and telling stories of depth, purpose and soul with us.
