Barkaa in Wagga!
Partnerships
This event was made possible by funding provided from an Aboriginal Affairs grant. I then worked alongside Vickie Burkinshaw and Kayne Lindon Mills to liaise with the Wagga Wagga Civic Theatre.
The Concert
The concert was a huge success! The opening act was local Rapper, Beacho2700, and while he was performing the audience broke the record for loudest crowd ever in the Civic Theatre.
That record was then broken again when Barkaa performed but wow what an accomplishment for the young 18-year old rapper!
If you would like to read more about the event I wrote an article in the Western Riverina Arts newsletter on the evening. This article can be found at: https://mailchi.mp/87f566cd13ef/western-riverina-arts-may-newsletter-18235462

Miil Miil Productions Film Screening at the Park 2024
Miil Miil Productions Films
From funds provided by the Aboriginal Languages Trust for Aboriginal Languages Week in October 2024 we hosted a film screening at Gossamer Park in Leeton of our films.
Community
It was great to see so many people from the community attend. I would estimate we had around 200 people attend our free event, with a large amount of these being young people and children. We started the evening with a performance from Lawrence "Lollipop" Barlow and then when the night got dark enough we screened our 8 films for the community.
Wagga Wagga NAIDOC Ball 2023
Mawang Gaway NAIDOC Ball 2023
Working alongside the Wiradyuri Elders of Mawang Gaway I helped organise the Wagga Wagga NAIDOC Ball in 2023. That year's theme was "For Our Elders" so it was extremely important to me that we hold an event to honour our Elders.
Elders Recognised!
Due to our successful fundraising and sponsors we were able to provide 100 Elders with free tickets for themselves and a plus one. As well as this, each Elder received a certificate thanking them for their contribution to our community as well as a small gift.
Entertainment
As the Elders requested I was able to organise Uncle Roger Knox to come and perform for us. He brought his band and they put on an amazing show.
