Ma ke ʻano he luna hoʻokō o WESTAF, e mālama ʻo Gaines i ka hoʻomohala hou ʻana o nā papahana ʻenehana hana noʻeau o WESTAF. Ke lawelawe nei kēlā mau papahana i kēia manawa ma kahi o 3,000 mau hui ʻoihana a ʻoi aku ma mua o 220,000 mau mea pena kiʻi ma ka ʻāina. E hana pū ʻo ia e kākoʻo i ka hoʻomohala ʻana o nā keʻena ʻoihana mokuʻāina he 13 ma ka ʻāina WESTAF. Kākoʻo ʻo WESTAF i kēia manawa i nā keʻena ma o ke kālā ʻana i ke kākoʻo kānāwai, hoʻomohala ʻoihana, hāʻawi kālā, a me ka noiʻi a me ka hoʻomohala kulekele. Ua kamaʻāina maikaʻi ʻo Gaines me nā keʻena hana noʻeau mokuʻāina a me kā lākou waiwai koʻikoʻi. Ke hoʻopau nei ʻo ia i kāna kau ʻelua ma ke ʻano he mea i koho ʻia no ke Kiaʻāina Rick Snyder i ke keʻena hana noʻeau mokuʻāina ʻo Michigan, ʻo ka Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs (MCACA).

"He nui nā manawa kūpono o WESTAF no ka ulu ʻana i ka hoʻolālā e kākoʻo i nā keʻena hana noʻeau a me ka ʻoihana noʻeau ma o ka ʻenehana, alakaʻi manaʻo like ʻole, a me nā mea hou," wahi a WESTAF Chair Erin Graham. "ʻO ka ʻike o ka Karistiano i ka ʻenehana a me ka ʻoihana ʻoihana a me ka ʻike ikaika i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka moʻomeheu moʻomeheu a me nā papahana hoʻokomo ʻia nā waiwai āpau iā WESTAF. Ke kakali nei mākou i ke alakaʻi ʻana o Christian i ke kūkulu ʻana i nā kūleʻa o WESTAF a hiki i kēia lā a lawe i ka hui i kahi pae aʻe.

Ua lawelawe ʻo Gaines no ʻelima mau makahiki ma ke ʻano he luna hoʻokō o ArtPrize ma Grand Rapids, Michigan. ʻO ArtPrize kahi hoʻokūkū hoʻokūkū noʻeau honua ʻole i wehe ʻia i kēlā me kēia mea pena e hana ana ma kēlā me kēia ʻano mai nā wahi a pau o ka honua. No 19 mau lā i ka hāʻule mua, ma kahi o 500,000 mau malihini kipa e iho i ke kūlanakauhale, e hele ana i nā mea pena kiʻi e hōʻike ana ma kahi o 1,500 mau hana i ʻike ʻia ma kahi o 170 mau wahi a he manuahi a wehe ʻia i ka lehulehu. Hāʻawi ʻia ka $500,000 i nā makana i kēlā me kēia makahiki - ʻo ka hapalua ma ke koho balota lehulehu i hoʻohana ʻia i ka atamai a me ka hapalua e ka jure o nā ʻoihana loea.

Hoʻomaopopo pū ʻia ka hanana no ka hāʻawi ʻana i nā haʻawina komo nui i nā mea pena kiʻi, nā wahi a me nā kumu hoʻonaʻauao i kēlā me kēia makahiki, a no kāna hāʻawi ʻana i ke ola waiwai o ka ʻāina. ʻOiai ma ArtPrize, mālama pū ʻo Gaines i nā polokalamu e hoʻokūkū ana i nā mea pena kiʻi i nā wahi a mālama i ka hoʻomaikaʻi ʻana i kahi kahua koho pāloka geofenced.

ʻO ka hoʻokō ʻana o Gaines i ka ʻokoʻa, ka kaulike, a me ka hoʻopili ʻana he mea kūpono loa ia me ka hana alakaʻi i komo ai ʻo WESTAF. I ka wā o kona noho ʻana ma ArtPrize, ua hana ʻo Gaines me nā limahana a me nā hoa kaiāulu e hoʻomohala a hoʻokō i nā papahana i kamaʻilio a hoʻomaikaʻi i ka ʻike ArtPrize hope loa no nā mea pena, nā wahi a me nā malihini kipa. Ua ʻike pū ʻia ʻo Gaines i nā pilikia o ke komo ʻana i ka hana noʻeau. He lālā papa lōʻihi o ka DisArt nonprofit, ua hana ʻo ia me ka luhi ʻole e hōʻoia i ke komo ʻana o ArtPrize i ka moʻomeheu kīnā ma o nā hōʻike, nā hanana, nā papahana a me nā lawelawe kākoʻo.

No ʻelima mau makahiki, ua hana ʻo ia ma IMDb.com, kahi hui Amazon, kahi āna i lawelawe ai ma ke ʻano he loea i ka hoʻolālā ʻahaʻaina a me ka loea hoʻomohala ʻoihana e nānā ana i ka hoʻonui honua ʻana o Withoutabox.com, kahi hoʻouna kiʻiʻoniʻoni a me kahi kahua hoʻokolokolo e hoʻopili ana i nā mea hana kiʻiʻoniʻoni i nā ʻoliʻoli kiʻiʻoniʻoni a puni ka honua. Ua lawelawe ʻo ia no ʻewalu mau makahiki ma ke ʻano he alakaʻi hoʻolauleʻa no ka American Film Institute ma Los Angeles, Kaleponi a no ʻehā mau makahiki ma ke ʻano he alakaʻi hoʻolauleʻa a me ke alakaʻi o ka papahana ma ka Hawaii International Film Festival ma Honolulu, Hawaii.

Ua haʻi ʻo Gaines, "Ua hoʻokō nui ʻo WESTAF mai kona hoʻomaka ʻana, no laila he hanohano nui ke koho ʻia ʻana i luna hoʻokele hou. Ke hana pū nei au me ka papa WESTAF, nā limahana, nā hoa ʻoihana ʻoihana mokuʻāina a me nā mea kuleana nui ʻē aʻe, makemake wau e kākoʻo me ka luhi ʻole a me ka hauʻoli e hoʻoikaika, hoʻololi, pūnaewele, a me ke kālā i nā kaiāulu hana i kā mākou mau mokuʻāina komohana waiwai.
