Did you know that laughter can be a lifeline in times of crisis?

Spark Circus brings joy and hope to children along the Thai/ Burmese border. Through playful performances and imaginative workshops, we create safe spaces that offer emotional first aid. These joyous encounters help children feel seen and heard, restoring a sense of childhood wonder.

Where we work

Mae Sot is a Thai border town near Myanmar, known for its diverse culture and humanitarian efforts.

It hosts many refugee children fleeing violence and persecution from  ongoing conflicts in Myanmar, particularly in Karen State, as families  seek safety and support from NGOs and international agencies providing  essential services.

Mae Sot, Tak, Thailand

Refugee crises in Thailand

A little about why...

The refugee crisis in Thailand is largely driven by ongoing conflicts in Myanmar, particularly affecting ethnic minorities like the Karen and Rohingya. Since the military coup in Myanmar in February 2021, violence and human rights abuses have escalated, prompting thousands to flee into Thailand seeking safety. Many live in temporary shelters or makeshift camps with limited access to education, healthcare, and employment. In contrast, the situation in Myanmar remains dire, marked by widespread military repression, civil unrest, and humanitarian emergencies, leading to a continuous flow of refugees into neighboring countries as people seek asylum from persecution and violence.

Stardust Circus school

Circus all year round

Our permanent circus space serves as a dynamic venue for entertaining  and training young people, offering programs and events that promote  creativity, teamwork, and personal growth. It’s a hub for learning and  self-expression, where individuals can discover their talents and build  lasting memories

History of Spark circus

Long-term relationships

 Over the past 15 years in Mae Sot, we have delivered impactful shows and  workshops in collaboration with hundreds of organisations dedicated to  supporting children. Our initiatives not only entertain but also  educate, empowering young minds and fostering a sense of community  through shared experiences and creative expression

Volunteers

Over the years, we've been fortunate to host hundreds of volunteers from  around the globe, enriching our programs with diverse talents.  Additionally, we've actively sponsored local performers from Thailand,  Cambodia, Vietnam, and Burma, celebrating and uplifting their artistry  while fostering cross-cultural connections that enhance our collective  impact in the community

Impact

Each year, we deliver engaging shows and interactive workshops to thousands of children across the region, providing entertainment, education, and positive life experiences. Our programs aim to inspire creativity, promote teamwork, and foster important social values through arts, performances, and hands-on activities. By reaching such a large number of children annually, we make a meaningful impact on their development and well-being, helping to create joyful, memorable moments and empowering them with new skills and confidence.

Local volunteers

We actively fund and support Asian circus performers from Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, and Myanmar to join our projects, providing opportunities for them to showcase their talents, gain experience, and collaborate with international teams. This initiative helps promote regional circus arts, empower local artists, and foster cultural exchange, enriching our programs and creating a diverse, vibrant environment for both performers and the communities we serve.

We love what we do!

 

Passion, creativity, and a commitment to making a difference drive us every day. Seeing smiles, inspiring change, and bringing joy to communities around the world — this is why we do what we do.
