Bohusläns Cirkussällskap - Reinos vänner

Our mission is to give children, with and without physical and mental disabilities, the possibility to experience and take part in circus arts. Our organisation is based on the swedish westcoast about 90 km north from Gothenburg. Here lived a world renowned circus artist, Reino and his wife, Elsie. They shared their circus skills with all children in the neigbourhood and started a local circus tradition. When they passed away we started the organisation ‘Reinos friends’, to make sure that the future generations also can be given the possibilities to experience and take part in circus arts. Our goal is to reach out to all children, with and without disabilities, and give them the possibility to try out and take part in circus arts. To achive that we need a studio suitable for circus arts and that is what we are building at the moment. The studio is called the circus mill and it is situated in exactly the same place where Reinos’ old mill was before.
