Circo Volador (Flying Circus): Youth and Popular

Summary

Seeks to show that positive social action can have a direct effect on a community. Through inter- and multi-disciplinarian activities that parallel recreational and cultural efforts.

What is the issue, problem, or challenge?

The project needs to increase and improve its human and financial resources, to contribute through infrastructural, technical and institutional support to a more professional work on the part of working class youths and young alternative artists that are excluded from the cultural circuit allowing them to have access to a greater audience, self work, micro industry and to share their proposals and stance regarding a society affected by neoliberal policies and globalization.

How will this project solve this problem?

Workshops, round tables for youth problems, Movie Marathons, Concert and Musical Performances

Potential Long Term Impact

20 Training Workshops, 1 Summer Course for boys and girls, 20 Movie Marathons, Book Club Service, 25 Concert and Musical Performances, 1 Magazine, 2 Professional Theses and 5 Academic Publications

Project Message
