Who we are
FE.EM Circus Festival
This project was designed in times of pandemic, where the future of many young people was blurred due to the lack of opportunities. The aim of the project is to work on the idea of learning to “create” in times of pandemic by providing tools to the participants to help them create an online circus festival.

The main point is...
...to involve youth and facing social obstacles in the overall design, creation of performances and events like this, culminating in a festival, where they can express their hope, dreams and solutions for the pandemic, with a strong social impact.
