2022 Okinawan Festival Theme
The official 2022 Okinawan Festival theme design is a commemorative design noting the date and location along with the 40th Annual Okinawan Festival logo. At the forefront of the design is a Ryukyu Buyo dancer wearing a bingata kimono and hanagasa while holding yotsudake. To her left is an eisa drummer holding an O-daiko (notice the Hawaiian Islands) and to her right is a sanshin player. In the background stands the tori from the HUOA logo (HUOA logo designed by Chic Takara).

Andagi Nankurunaisa
2022 Okinawan Festival shirt design in the long running and super popular Andagi Series. This year's design pays tribute to Shuri Castle. Nankurunaisa is often misinterpreted as "everything will be alright." However, the broader idea is "things will happen IF you try to make them happen," according to Brandon Ufugusuku Ing.

2022 Contest Design Winner
Shisa by Cali Inouye
"I am excited to design the t-shirt for HUOA's 40th Okinawan Festival. The design is inspired by various Okinawan and bon odori motifs. One shiisaa is eating yakisoba, while the other dons a happi coat. He is also holding an uchiwa fan, in which I drew a simple Okinawan-like pattern on. He is happily waving it to welcome you all to 2022's Okinawan Festival! See you there!" -
