Please note that this EOI is for professional circus trainers only. 

TNA is pleased to be able to support a trainer with diverse lived experience to attend the Canberra Circus Festival for five days of professional development. The bursary will cover a ‘Circus Trainer’ ticket (incl. three-day Circus Trainer Development Program, camping ticket (BYO gear), meals and tickets to select Big Top shows). It will also go towards covering flights/travel costs to get to and from the festival. 

This bursary is intended to support a trainer who is facing significant barriers of access & equity. People from TNA’s target communities will be prioritised: First Peoples, People of Colour, Deaf and disabled people and those based regionally. 

All applicants will be assessed to ensure they are eligible, and then the successful recipient will be selected by lottery.
