Wantok Pati @ Studio 188

Mel Ree and Revolution Renegade presents… 

Wantoks and friends! In the 50th year of Independence for Papua New Guinea we are inviting you all to PATI in WANTOK style!

All you favourite PNG, Pasifika and Melanesian hits will be playing all night long!

The aunties will be serving up delicious kaikai, come hungry and ready to dance.

We will also be having a special screening of TINPIS RUN, to commemorate Papua New Guinean stories, co-directed and produced by Maureen Mopio Jane.

Let’s kick off the year celebrating everything Papua New Guinea! Laikem yu algeta!

Ipswich City Council has transformed the historic Old Baptist Church into the intimate, well renowned performing arts venue, Studio 188. Offering a year-round program of art, culture and entertainment in the heart of Ipswich, Studio 188 boasts a flexible space, regular live music gigs, artist residencies and creative development workshops where big ideas are hatched and people come together in ways that connect and inspire. 

Studio 188 is the home for local artists and community folk to foster industry connections, gain exposure and develop new works, with regular free workshops and programs.
