Palestinian Circus School
The Palestinian Circus (PC) began as a small circus group in August 2006 thanks to the determination of Shadi Zmorrod and Jessika Devlieghere, who initiated the idea to introduce circus arts from Palestinians for Palestinians.
Through the different components of circus education, they wanted to stimulate and develop the physical, mental, artistic, sensitive, social and cognitive abilities. They were convinced that circus would bring many youths a brighter future.
PC has two main programs: The Educational Program (for children aged 5 to 14 )and The Artistic Program.
By teaching, creating, performing and programming circus arts, the Palestinian Circus strengthens the creative, social and physical potential of Palestinians, seeking to engage and empower them to become constructive actors in society and raises local and international awareness about the positive Palestinian potential and its different challenges.
