breaksea
Breaksea is a non-profit, multi-arts organisation on a quest to spread the joy of creativity.
Based in the Great Southern, we work across Western Australia championing regional artists and communities. We engage communities and emerging artists to work alongside world class singers, performers, composers, filmmakers, dancers and visual artists in celebration of creative expression and community cohesion.
We work collaboratively with professional and community organisations to co-create meaningful interdisciplinary arts and performance experiences. Committed to open access, innovation and exceptional performance, our work gives voice to the rich and diverse stories of Western Australia.
