EST 2020
Across the January 2026 long weekend, Awesome Black presented the inaugural Maito Weekender as part of our collaboration as the First Nations Creative Connector for the Office of the 24-Hour Economy Commissioner.
The brief was to bring a vibrant showcase of music and culture with crowds en masse to the regional centre of Maitland, supporting the local economy and providing a free experience for festival-lovers from near and far.
Featuring 20 performances and workshops in the heart of Maitland at The Family Hotel, the lineup included BARKAA, Lemonise, Yung Brother and more, with 1,300 attendees packing the venue from day to night.
A live performance meets cultural statement — blending hip hop, theatre and visual art to tell the story of a community through sound.
It began as an idea: what would happen if a Redfern house party became a live performance and a pirate radio broadcast all at once?
Created and directed by Awesome Black, the project premiered at Carriageworks for Vivid Sydney 2025.

Reframing one of the world’s biggest creative festivals through a Blak lens — curating spaces, stages and ideas that centre First Nations excellence.
As the official First Nations Curatorial Partner for SXSW Sydney, Awesome Black reimagines how a global festival can look, sound and feel on unceded lands. From the Awesome Black Lounge and live showcases like Louder to keynote conversations and workshops, our curatorial direction threads culture through every part of the program — not as inclusion, but as foundation.
A projection ceremony for Country and crowd, Ghadu Gathering transformed the canvas of Allianz Stadium into a living artwork — a moment where culture, sport and ceremony met.
Produced by Awesome Black and animated by Studio Gilay, Ghadu Gathering opened the NRL’s Indigenous Round with a performance that honoured Saltwater Country and the stories carried by amazing artwork by Shane Youngberry.
Presented in collaboration with the Office of the 24 Hour Economy Commissioner, The Gujaga Foundation, NRL NSW, Allianz Stadium and Studio Gilay.
