Let the next generation of Aboriginal artists show you what they’ve got!
Featuring performances of traditional dance, hip-hop, song, poetry, and drama, the Boorloo Hustle Talent Show is an opportunity for the next generation of Aboriginal artists to show their community what they’ve got.
Presented in partnership with Edmund Rice Centre WA and Whitelion, the talent show is a culmination of 6 weeks of workshops, facilitated by local Aboriginal artists, which offered the chance for young Aboriginal people to develop confidence in their skills and talents and connect to culture through performing arts.
The Boorloo Hustle Talent Show will be held in person at Scarborough Amphitheatre and is supported by the City of Stirling, the Packer Family Foundation, and the Crown Resorts Foundation.

About the Youth Week WA KickstART Festival
Presented by Propel Youth Arts WA, the KickstART Festival has been the flagship event of Youth Week WA for 12 years running. KickstART offers over 60 free events - including workshops, talks, performances, mentorships, exhibitions, markets, and other special events - between 8 - 16 April, for young people aged 12-26.
Due to growing concerns about COVID-19 and the anticipated continued spread of Omicron across our communities in Boorloo (Perth) and WA, the Propel team has decided to pivot towards digital and hybrid formats for the delivery of the KickstART Festival this April.
The Youth Week WA KickstART Festival 2022 is presented by Propel Youth Arts WA and is funded by the Government of Western Australia through the Department of Communities and the Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries. KickstART is also supported by Lotterywest, the City of Perth, the City of Stirling, the City of Fremantle, and the City of Vincent.
