The circus wasn’t performing on the nights I was in Battambang, but I found out that it was possible to visit the school in the daytime for a visit. I asked to do it as part of the tuk tuk tour as it was on the way. For $5 I though it was worth it. The school provides normal education for the local children and additional circus, dancing, art and design classes for others wishing to learn them. You are shown around the campus, taken to the kindergarten, the kitchens were over 40 children are given free meals everyday, to the Circus Big Top, the practice hall, where the children( and adults) practice, trampolining, acrobatics, trapeze etc, the upstairs classrooms where they teach mime, acting, traditional dance and singing, to the music room where they are taught to play traditional Cambodian instruments, to the art classes, where they were learning perspective, portraiture, traditional writing and drawing and graphic design, and finally to the display hall where you could see examples of their portfolios. I thoroughly enjoyed it and the young guide that escorted me was really polite and informative.

This was booked for us by our tour company and I was slightly ambivalent about going, but am so glad I did. Interesting and informative and the food we cooked was really tasty - probably the best spring rolls I have ever had ( and I have had many!). Definitely inspired to make them at home.

Sangker Gallery

In 2011, the space now occupied by Sangker Gallery was a common studio where freshly educated artists met to exchange ideas and collaborate. While wanting to offer better visibility to the artists, the gallery did not want to break with the primary function of the place and limit itself to an exhibition space. The gallery is always a living space where artists can find material for their creations, work on their projects, draw inspiration from one another and use the internet for their research. Close to its artists, the team of the gallery takes to heart to support them in their artistic process. Film screenings are organized, debates, meetings and workshops by and for artists are set up with a specific theme (color, sculpture, etc.). We try to provide them with all the keys to success, especially by involving them in intercultural exchanges. In the heart of the city of Battambang, Sangker Gallery is committed to bringing contemporary art to the Cambodian public.
