The Sunday outline focuses on the Development of Elements program - this program is supporting young local artists to develop a local Hip Hop cultural network - bringing young people from all backgrounds in and around Wagga Wagga together to foster mutual respect for one another as they help mentor other young people in the community.

The Sunday events involve working with Wagga Wagga City Council as part of their Re-generate program that they bring to the young people of Wagga Wagga every year.

The Weekend will prove to be yet another rewarding experience, working with local youths, promoting Darrio’s love of Hip Hop and passing it on to the Community.
