Building Inclusivity, Celebrating Diversity
What's been happening at Epic Arts.
March was a powerful month of progress and celebration here at Epic Arts! 💙 Our project team have been hard at work overseeing the renovation of inclusive bathrooms and a new classroom at a local primary school — helping create spaces where every child can learn with dignity.
We proudly celebrated World Down Syndrome Day, spreading awareness and embracing difference and our talented Epic Arts Dance team took center stage with ‘On Equal Ground’, a moving performance created for International Women’s Day in partnership with the Cambodian Ministry of Women’s Affairs.
To all our incredible supporters — thank you. Your continued belief in our mission helps us champion a world where every person counts (EPiC). 🙌
Inspiring Stories
Meet Socheat, a passionate performer who has been part of the Epic Arts family for over 9 years. As a core member of the Epic Arts Dance team, Socheat travels across Cambodia — and beyond — using dance to celebrate the abilities of all people and challenge perceptions of disability.
His love for movement and creativity shines through every performance. With a natural talent for expression and innovation, Socheat dreams of a future in choreography where he can shape powerful, inclusive stories through dance.
Outside of his work with Epic Arts, he continues to grow as an artist — collaborating on projects in contemporary and creative dance. Through his journey, Socheat hopes to inspire more people with disabilities to explore the freedom and joy of dance.
