Be part of the Create a Clown Competition!
SouthWestFest is inviting children and young people from across SW1 to create their own idea for a clown face. Paint your design on an egg, and all entries will be displayed at SW1Gallary as part of the SouthWestFest exhibition. Winning designs will then be chosen and worn by the professional clowns at each of the Circus performances.
