Seafood Extender

Seafood Extender brings live art into the heart of the new Sydney Fish Market. Curated by Daniel Mudie Cunningham, this evolving program transforms the market into a stage for performance, sound, movement and shared experiences.

Across 14 artist-led projects, expect everything from foghorn orchestras and oyster shucking to printmaking, dance and hands-on workshops, all unfolding alongside the rhythm of daily market life.

Shaped by water, seasonality and place, Seafood Extender reimagines the market as more than a place to buy seafood, it’s a space for connection, culture and exchange.
