Résumé :
The Estates General were an excellent opportunity for the community to exchange views, rally its forces and develop a united voice on the major issues of development, creation, production and presentation in order to assess the current situation of circus arts and the sector’s future. There were two parts to the event. On the first day, participants were consulted during workshops, which made it possible to identify the trends and challenges of the development of circus arts, as well as measures to be taken to meet these challenges. The results of these consultations were presented on the second day to various political and cultural representatives and members of En Piste. In light of the results from the 2007 Estates General and in order to gain full recognition for the circus arts, En Piste, with the support of its 300 members from across the circus sector, wanted to record the common concerns expressed by the community at the Estates General. Everybody wants these views to be heard in order to ensure that this unique sector continues to thrive.
Armed with this tool, En Piste will continue its efforts to promote and increase awareness of the circus arts, to raise its profile with politicians and decision-making authorities, to increase funding, and to position the circus arts in the arts and culture landscape of Quebec and Canada.
