merEKA

Since the inception of the company, we have created spaces for people to learn, experiment, develop their practice and find their way into the arts. merEKA continues that work, giving participants the opportunity to learn from experienced practitioners, build their skills, explore ideas and create work of their own.

Our programmes are open to people at different stages of their journey, whether you’re just starting out, looking to build on an existing practice or simply curious to try something new. And they’re free of charge, because we believe that access to learning and artistic development should be open to everyone.

Over the years, artists who have come through Ekamatra’s development programmes have gone on to become writers, directors, actors, producers and arts practitioners in Singapore. Some came with years of experience, while others were simply looking for a place to begin.

Wherever you’re starting from, merEKA is a space to learn, make, experiment and see where it takes you.




Call2Action

Call To Action is an innovative online and cross-cultural initiative, part of The Living Newspaper, aiming to engage young people in reimagining a post-pandemic world using digital techniques.

In November 2022, talented Singaporean youths participated in the 3rd edition of the Call 2 Action program in Edinburgh, exploring the complex relationships between youth, culture, and social politics. They shared experiences and created eight short films, now available on the Call to Action website.

We were also invited to present at the International Teaching Arts Conference 2022 in Oslo, Norway, to present on our work with youths via the Call 2 Action programme.

In 2022, we received the CDN Digital Learning Award (UK) for our innovative approach to engaging youths through digital methods in education.
