🎶 For the first time in its 30-year history, MBC Pacific Artist in Residence at UC, funded by Creative New Zealand, has selected a musician.

Highly respected Samoan musician, producer and arts leader Posenai Mavaega has been named the 2026 Pacific Artist in Residence.

Posenai says the residency is an opportunity to honour the stories, relationships and musical traditions that have shaped his work.
