Sosi is reaching out to us as a circus community, to create our own ‘tribes’ to raise funds to establish the center. Email us for more info on [email protected], or donate directly at https://www.gofundme.com/f/Circus-Centre. This is a chance, amongst all the challenges of COVID 19, for the circus and arts community to give our direct support to a sister community that could really change the lives of young Ethiopians. Chaired by Mike Finch, the launch guests will include: Brukty Tigabu, Chair of Social Enterprise Ethiopia; Wintana Gmaskel, Circus Artist from the award winning “Trilogy”, Ethiopia; Anni Davey, Artistic Director, The Flying Fruitfly Circus; Zsuzsanna Mata, Executive Director of the Federation Mondiale de Cirque and Founding Director of the Global Alliance of Circus Schools; Sosina Wogayehu, Circus Center, Ethiopia.
