Barkly Regional Arts Inc. & The Winanjjikari Music Centre celebrates success.

Winanjjikari Music Centre — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 01:54:00 GMT

The Rock squad crew at the Winanjjikari Music Centre is celebrating the successful application to the Christianson fund, which is based in the United States of America, for funding our upcoming program in the new year. The funding received will be used to set up the Winanjjikari Outreach Program. This program will be centered in 8 communities throughout the Barkly Region over the next 12 months. Music Project Officer Jeff McLaughlin said. “This was one of the hardest applications to receive in the world with Winanjjikari the only organization in Australasia to receive the grant. I am very proud of the men at the Winanjjikari Music Centre who have made this possible; we now have a chance to put back into the communities of the Barkly Region what we feel they have given to us, a sense of belonging and appreciation. I’m absolutely pleased the music centre now employs ten Indigenous people on real permanent part time positions. The workers are really stepping up to the plate and taking every opportunity that comes along to engage with the community in TC and to promote this region to the many tourists that have visited the centre. This coming year the rock squad aim to use music as their tool to help language retention, cultural enhancement and to share this knowledge with the rest of the World. Barkly Regional Arts Inc now enjoys “ Key Producer Status “ granted by the federal government and Barkly Arts is one of only nine in Australia to be given this honor. It has taken over two years to set the Music Centre up as the Musical Hub of the Barkly; we now have an Indigenous Studio Manager, Sound Engineer, Live Sound Manager, numerous session musicians and these men have become mentor roles in the region. We hope to add to the list of competent musicians at the centre by sourcing musicians in Barkly communities as part of the Outreach Program commencing next year. The Winanjjikari Music centre would like to thank Barkly Regional Arts, The Winanjjikari Music Centre Board, Papulu Appar-kari Language Centre, The Indigenous Coordination Centre, Charles Darwin University, Territory School of Music, Australia Council for the Arts, Arts NT, Music NT, CAAMA and the Barkly communities for all there support. You can purchase the Bacon and Eggs Album from the Music Centre for only $15 as a pre Christmas Special, If you have some spare time drop in and hang out with the musicians behind the Pyramid Building on Peko Road and see the good work in Progress. Here is Alvin's new song "Black fella Doing time."
