/ LEONARDO: LES GRANDES CIRQUES EUROPEAN PARTNERSHIP

 

One of two new projects (the other being a Vocational Training for Outdoor Arts programme) funded by the European Lifelong Learning Programme (Leonardo Da Vinci Partnerships).

 

This programme will see SeaChange Arts working in an exciting partnership with three of Europe's most historic building-based circuses: Cirque Jules Verne (Amiens, France), Teatro Circo Price (Madrid, Spain), and The Hippodrome Circus (Great Yarmouth, UK).

 

The innovative training and career development programme aims to increase employability and adaptability of creative and administrative practitioners working in the sector.

 

It will establish an on-going partnership between the three circuses based on joint working in:

 

 

• professional development
• building and sharing skills in training and professional development
• opening up new employment possibilities across diverse territories, traditions and markets

 

 

The project will also see SeaChange working with emerging artists to develop new work which will be showcased at the Out There Festival.
