Second Echo Ensemble creates Radical Equity

through exceptional art, performance, creative development and collaborations.

2026 Artistic Program

In a world that feels increasingly fractured, 2026 is SEE doubling down on what we know: art takes time, relationships are creative practice, and belonging is something we build deliberately, together, again and again.

After the scale and exhilaration of our 20th Anniversary season in 2025, 2026 becomes a year of settling in, listening closely, and allowing the future shape of our work to emerge through care, conversation and time -  at the pace real relationships require.

SEE Studio Programs

The SEE Studio Program is where artists come to build practice, test ideas, and make work together.

It is Second Echo Ensemble’s artist and artform development program, supporting artists to grow skills, confidence, and professional connection through sustained studio practice.

The program is made up of a series of Labs — Soundtrack Lab, Animation Lab, Dance Lab and Ensemble Lab — each offering a different way to explore creative practice. Artists can take part in one Lab or several, depending on their interests, access needs, and goals.

Our Vision

Second Echo Ensemble is a place where art reshapes perspectives and redefines possibility - challenging how it's made, who creates it, and where it happens.

We don't make art about having a disability or not having a disability. We create stories about life, its surroundings, its imaginings, its rhythms, its anger, and its celebrations.

  • This is such a wonderful opportunity to showcase the talents of these gifted young people and the sense of possibility that has unfolded in their lives… It is an inspiring cause that deserves the support of every Tasmanian.

    The Honourable Julia Gillard MP, former Prime Minister of Australia

  • Second Echo Ensemble holds a special and unique place in my heart and in the hearts of the Tasmanian community – forging new ways of thinking and collaboration, providing new opportunities for engagement with culture and the arts, challenging what we accept and what we think we know, and sharing the different perspectives of artists from a range of diverse backgrounds.
