FREE arts workshops for Gloucestershire youth – we are co-creating backdrops using art activism and recycled materials for display at the Great Big Climate Circus.
The Great Big Climate Circus is a four-year youth-led touring project in Gloucestershire. Now in its first year, in 2026 the Climate Circus will be visiting:
Saturday 20 June at Stratford Park, Stroud
Saturday 11 July at Dursley War Memorial Recreation Ground, Dursley
Saturday 18 July at The Venture Community Hub, White City, Gloucester
Family and community events 1 - 6 pm - FREE thanks to National Lottery players!
Free workshops and free public events thanks to the National Lottery Climate Action Fund. The Great Big Climate Circus uses the arts for young people in Gloucestershire to express their thoughts and feelings about climate concerns.
After the summer events, there are further opportunities for young people to be supported to transform their climate concerns into local and national action. Get involved!
Delivered in partnership with Creative Sustainability, World Jungle, Bromford Flagship, Cotswolds National Landscape, Ernest Cook Trust and On the Brink Arts, the project will support young people — particularly those facing barriers to participation — to build confidence, develop leadership skills and shape climate action in their own communities.
