Blak Powerhouse
Blak Powerhouse is back for the third time. After a huge year of Blak arts, music and culture that has witnessed mob taking things to new heights, an era of Blak brilliance is here, and with it, the rising of new kings and queens.
Join Blak Powerhouse on 26 January 2025 as We Are Warriors partners with Powerhouse to take over Manning House at the University of Sydney with live music, dance, art, food, DJs and more.
It’s time to take the crown.
