Otara ‘s Youth Have The Right To Write!

Otara ‘s Youth Have The Right To Write!

It is a well known fact that many of Otara’s youth, such as Young Sid of Smashproof, and Manu Vatuvei of the Warriors, have gone on to become very successful in their music and sporting endeavours. However, lesser known is the fact that the 12th August is United Nations International Youth Day and Hoodie Day which celebrate young people and youth culture.

On Saturday 8th August while the usual hubbub of the Otara Markets is going on, Otara Youth Collective, with the support of Otara Health Incorporated, bring you the “Right To Write” – Otara Street Jam event, Otaras tribute to celebrate United Nations International Youth Day and Hoodie Day!

Hosted by Flava the free family event features live performances by Cydel, Anonymouz, Malcolm Lakatani, 4DG, Shine Forum, Crossbreed, Underground Krump Kings, Sweetness, Protégé, Deeplight, Murdz, Eddie Williams & many more!

Not just about the music the “Right To Write” event also provides the opportunity for budding local visual artists to enter into a street art competition and get up close and personal with the hosts of the art competition and members of the TMD Graffiti crew -Phat One and Lady Diva.

So if you and the family are looking to check out some fresh new sounds and art with a strong possibility you might win some free giveaways, join us at “Right To Write” – Otara Street Jam!
