In response to high demand and in admiration for Iain Macarthur’s brilliant design for Circus City – The Outsider Edition, we have collaborated with local printmakers Hidden Temple to create a limited run of hand screened commemorative t-shirts.
This short run of t-shirts are not only super stylish but in buying one you can also feel pride in being a supporter of Bristol’s very own biannual Circus festival – described as a “one of a kind festival hosting amazing unique work” and with “inter disciplinary practices that are pushing the form of circus in new directions”.
Over the coming years we will be expanding our programme to reach more of Bristol’s communities and put in the ground work towards creating an inclusive and inspirational Circus City festival for 2025, our 10 year anniversary.
“I felt inspired and excited about living in Bristol. It made me want to make work and invest time in building arts communities that can collaborate creatively and politically”
