The invite:

Join volunteers and friends of Clowns Without Borders for an evening of laughter, wonder and amusement as we bring our dreams (and maybe yours) to life. At this event, we ask the question: how do we live our dreams? And how can we inspire each other to dream? Join us for a night of fantasy and amazement featuring world-class performers from Portland and abroad.

Clowns Without borders offers laughter and enchantment to relieve the suffering of all
persons, especially children, who live in areas of crisis; including refugee camps, conflict zones, and territories in situations of emergency around the world. This event benefits Clowns Without Borders USA for the upcoming trip to Chiapas, Mexico and this year will mark the 7th year of touring in Chiapas. For the first three weeks in February several clowns will be traveling to Zapatista schools and villages to bring performance, laughter and merriment to all we encounter. Other projects of Clowns without borders include Haiti, Southern Sudan, Kenya, Southern Africa, Colombia, India, Mexico, Ethiopia, Guatemala and around the domestic USA.

Clowns Without Borders needs your support, so pull out your wallets, dig into your pockets, search the sofa cushions… whatever it takes! With the help of many energetic volunteers, generous sponsors and the beautiful space at the Bamboo Grove Salon, we’ll provide the party.

We invite you to arrive in costume and bring your dreams to life, in the company of aerial artists, stilt walkers, jugglers, physical theatre performers, and more…
