This new event spreads the fun and foolishness further across Winnipeg’s downtown.
Downtown Clown Around is produced with the support of the Winnipeg Cultural Capital of Canada 2010 program. The Cultural Capitals of Canada is a national program funded by the federal government through the Department of Canadian Heritage, to recognize and support Canadian Municipalities for special activities that harness the many benefits of arts and culture in community life.
