"Tallers d’estiu" (summer workshops) are part of a creative, educational and play programme to awaken children's sensitivity, during the hot summer months, by way of various artistic disciplines. The concept is built on three points: dance, music and art, with the space and time for each to find their creativity and, in short, become more free.

It is an intensive 15-day summer workshop where each year the art is expressed through different disciplines to give the children breadth of vision and inner resources. This year we decided to form two groups of different ages to explore other rhythms. But the main idea is to have groups of mixed ages and discover diversity of thoughts and creativity, and to enrich their experience.

 

THE GENERAL IDEA OF THE 2014 SUMMER PROJECT WAS TO SHOW CHILDREN THE ART OF TRADITIONAL CIRCUS AS WELL AS HOW, THROUGH CIRCUS, CURRENT AND SOCIAL ISSUES CAN BE DISCUSSED. WE WANTED TO TALK ABOUT CIRCUS AS AN ART FORM AND CIRCUS AS A PLATFORM FOR PROMOTING COMMITMENT, COOPERATION AND SOLIDARITY.

OUR AIM WAS TO DRAW THEIR ATTENTION TO WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD AND
TO SEND HELP FROM OURSELVES ON THE SPOT.
WE WANTED TO PROPOSE A DRAWING AND SHORT FILM PROJECT FOR "CLOWNS WITHOUT BORDERS" AND
IN THIS WAY CONTRIBUTE TO CREATING A BETTER WORLD!

WE AWAIT YOU AT OUR NEXT SHOW:
WELCOME!
