Cirkaskina - National Social Circus Gathering ^expired Free

From January 17 to January 19, 2020, it is in a spirit of openness that 150 young people from 17 Canadian communities–from Nunavut to Vancouver–will gather in Montreal for this historic event. Besides being a showcase for circus arts as a tool for social change, the gathering will provide opportunities for marginalized youth to exchange ideas, build relationships, and share expertise. The event will also create spaces where marginalized young people can express themselves through an open-stage event by and for the youth and the creation of a group manifesto.
