Cuts, Fades & Shades with Charles Lomu

As part of the Garage Barbershop project at Blacktown Arts Centre, Charles Lomu has mentored a group of young men – dubbed the ‘Original 5’ – in barbering as a craft, a culture and a potential career.

Charles and his young apprentices are now manning a pop-up barbershop at Blacktown Arts Centre every day during the exhibition!

These sessions are free. Bookings essential. Garage Barbershop is presented in partnership with Information and Cultural Exchange.
