MAV and Dandenong Market are proud to join forces to present the driving rhythms and melodies of local band 'Ausecuma Beats’.

We invite our community to join us for a FREE family-friendly afternoon of musika and dance. The AKC Arts Bus will activate children's creative workshops and international weavers will gather to create a story weave circle.

A celebration of community, life, language, heart, and culture.

This event is part of In Situ; a series of art installations, performances, gatherings, and events programmed by local artists into public spaces across Dandenong, Noble Park, and Springvale.

The event is funded through the City of Greater Dandenong as part of the state government’s Outdoor Economy Package.

This event is FREE family-friendly fun for all ages.

Ausecuma Beats

9-Piece Band

Born of fusion, AUstralia, SEnegal, CUba, and MAli - Ausecuma Beats stands for unity. It is demonstrated through their combined musical influences and rhythms. Collectively, they represent diversity. “We all see the hard work that lies ahead in the future. It’s not easy, and we all have different ways of thinking. But there is also something we all share, and that is humanity, and family. We have to teach our children, to help them on their journey.”. Their most recent album is named Musso; it means woman. It is dedicated to those who gave us life. It doesn’t matter how strong we are, how tough we are, or how lucky we are, in the chances we have been given. There is always someone who is worrying about us; there is no one who can be thinking about us more than our own mother. Musso is dedicated to the women in their lives and is sending respect to all women around the world.

MAV has a profound commitment to arts and artists shaping the narratives that define who we are as a multicultural nation.
