Youth Circus is about providing opportunities for artistic, personal and social growth in a fun, non-competitive atmosphere.
At Galway Community Circus Youth Circus refers to our membership-based circus arts education programmes for children and young people which focus on the artistic, social and personal development of participants. Delivered in an out-of-school setting, our youth circus programme consists of regular classes, performance opportunities, masterclasses, exchanges, camps and outings.
Wires Crossed is a European wide community participation project, revolving around ‘funambulism’-the art of tightwire walking using a balancing pole. In August 2020 Wires Crossed will host a circus festival in Galway city (6-9 August) including a major river crossing (August 8-9).
We believe in circus for all, and wish for circus to be part of wellness, learning and fun for all ages and levels of ability and disability.
