Roll up roll up !! Ladies & Gentlemen, Boys & Girls!
We welcome you all to the Stay Safe Circus!!!
Funded by the National Lottery Community Fund and delivered by Earthbound Misfits Ltd the "Stay Safe Circus" project has been developed during the troubling times of the Covid 19 pandemic of 2020. All arts activities and events have ceased in the UK including many performance arts based clubs, companies and centers, some are having to close their doors for good, this is leaving the UK with a massive arts and cultural void, our project hopes to help out in a little way locally as we aim to:-
-
Create a high quality permanent online beginners circus skills tuition data base of videos in juggling, plate spinning, poi and more.
-
Equip 100 families with a Circus At Home start up kit (The Equipment) including one spinning plate, 1 set of juggling beanbags, 1 set of juggling scarves and one pair of spinning poi.
-
At the end of these restricting times hold a massive free circus workshop celebration with all the participants and those benefiting from this project or with a passion for circus arts.
