“CIRCUS EXPO” AND “CIRCUS-THEMED COFFEE MORNING” AT THE “SPECIAL ANNIVERSARY EDITION” OF THE INTERNATIONAL CIRCUS FESTIVAL – CITY OF LATINA. THIS YEAR WILL BE ANOTHER SPECIAL EDITION DUE TO THE INCLUSION OF TWO ADDITIONAL EVENTS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN VERY POPULAR AND SUCCESSFUL IN PAST EDITIONS: “CIRCUS EXPO” AND “CIRCUS-THEMED COFFEE MORNING”. WE ARE ALREADY TAKING APPLICATIONS FOR THOSE WISHING TO TAKE PART AS EXHIBITORS OR SPEAKERS, WHO MAY APPLY FROM NOW UNTIL JUNE 21ST.
“Circus Expo” is a space dedicated to the exhibition of circus-themed arts such as photography, painting, sculpture, models and similar, where people can display their works to the International public of the Festival. The fourth edition of “Circus Expo” will take place within the Festival’s foyer area from October 17th to 21st. The aim of this project is, as always, to present the many and varied facets of Circus culture and live performance in general through a number of different mediums, thus extending the cultural reach of the Festival to an ever-growing audience.
The “Circus-themed Coffee Morning” is a kind of workshop for ideas seated around coffee tables; visitors may enjoy a cup of coffee whilst appreciating the presentation of literary works of a number of authors who have been inspired by the rich and varied world of the Circus. There are many notable works available in Italy and around the world on this subject, from novels to narrative themes to poetry to dedicated printed journals. These works, frequently at the back of the shelf in bookshops, merit far more attention than they get from the general public. The International Circus Festival – City of Latina intends to continue in its commitment to helping promote Circus arts in all its forms by including the second edition of the “Circus-Themed Coffee Morning” in its programme, where authors may present their works.
INFORMATION FOR PARTICIPANTS: Participation in our “Circus Expo” or “Circus-Themed Coffee Morning” is free, and does not cost anything for participants, and nor will there be any payment or reimbursement. “Circus Expo” will be set up on Wednesday October 16th, opened to the public on Thursday, October 17th, and officially opened in the presence of the authorities on Saturday, October 19th. It will conclude on Monday October 21st, coinciding with the Finale of the Festival. The “Circus-Themed Coffee Morning” will take place during the Festival (October 17 – 21) on a precise date and time yet to be decided.
