Maitland CBD
One of the most anticipated events on the calendar, Maitland's annual celebration of great food, wine, and produce from the region returns to The Levee from this Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon.

Visit maitlandtaste.com.au for more information.
NEW EXHIBITION
MRAG
'Just Not Australian', the latest exhibition at Maitland Regional Art Gallery, brings together 20 artists across generations and diverse cultural backgrounds to deal broadly with the origins and implications of contemporary Australian nationhood. Visit mrag.org.au/ for more information.
Waiting for Lefty
Maitland Repertory Theatre
Head to Maitland Repertory Theatre for the opening of 'Waiting for Lefty', the latest production by the team at Reamus Youth Theatre. Written in 1935 amid the American Great Depression, Clifford Odets' Waiting for Lefty captures a meeting of New York taxi drivers ready to strike. The strike is not about a few extra pennies in their pay or shorter hours of work but a strike for greater dignity, for bolder humanity, and a strike for the full stature of man.
