Cost: FREE!
This community event invites you to come inside the iconic Footscray Drill Hall and check out Women’s Circus, a social circus and not for profit arts organisation founded in Footscray in 1991. Women’s Circus runs year round social circus term classes for ages 2-75+, along with a range of creative programs including shows and developments. We seek to empower people of a marginalised gender to shape community and culture through circus.
At our Open Day we will have non-stop drop in circus workshops for all ages, so you and your family can try your hand at a whole range of circus skills including aerials, juggling, acrobalance and more. We will have Auslan interpreters on site all day for social interpreting and to interpret any circus instructions for d/Deaf community members who would like to come and try. All ages and all genders are welcome, and of course there will be a coffee cart on site serving free coffee and a bake sale!
You can pre register for free here, or sign up on the day. We can’t wait to meet you all and welcome you into your local circus!
