Virtual coffee time for circus professionals in May

Coffee & chat over the internet

Hello, circus people all over Finland (and elsewhere)! Due to the special circumstances this Spring, our almost-traditional morning coffees for circus professionals have moved online. Come meet your colleagues and chat about what’s up!

We’re arranging morning coffee meets for all circus professionals over Google Hangouts. You can join via a public link. The link will be shared on this page always a week before the scheduled meetup.

Wednesday May 27, 10–11.30 am  Where can foreign-born circus artists find relevant information regarding living and working in Finland? Morning coffee discussion with Globe Art Point, CircusInfo Finland and circus artists Amandine Doat and Simon Llewellyn as invited guests.  Join the discussion and share your thoughts and experiences in Google Hangouts.

Open link to join the morning coffee: https://meet.google.com/yjx-bbkg-obm

See you on the internet, bring your own coffee! ☕️
