Our People
Here is a basic page layout with a right sidebar
We have a great team of people who work hard behind the scenes in Cambodia and the UK
Whether it’s a wheelchair user holding on to the back of a bicycle to get home quicker or a student showing another student how to adapt an activity for their body, everyone is supportive and treated equally. Visitors to our inclusive arts centre in Kampot always tell us that Epic Arts is the most inclusive place they’ve ever been to because of the people who make up the organisation.
The people who work with us all have a unique way of thinking and acting. It’s what we like to call ‘Epic DNA’.
Senior Management Team
Onn Sokny, Laura Evans and Anthony Evans head up our Senior management Team they work together to develop Epic Arts’ projects, programmes and partnerships.

“I am deeply moved by Epic Arts’ determination to see lives transformed through the arts and by their commitment to fight injustices that affect people with disabilities. Epic Arts opens our eyes to our common humanity so that all of us can flourish.”
Archbishop Desmond Tutu
“I have known Epic Arts since its conception and I continue to admire and support its commitment to those with disabilities. When I worked for Epic Arts it was impossible not to be inspired by its passion and skill in using creative arts to transform lives, promote integration and create community. And as an actress it is wonderful to be involved in a charity where my love of theatre and the arts is used to such a wonderful, life changing effect.”
