The Idiot’s Hour Clown Show
An experimental variety clown show, driven by a deeply rooted need in human society to embrace and celebrate our Inner Idiot. It's raw, vulnerable, experimental, and expressive. We often fear judgment and worry about being seen as idiots in our darkest moments. But let’s accept it with extreme, ridiculous laughter, because we often are. A good life isn’t about banishing our Inner Idiot; it’s about living with it sensibly. This is a safe space to be stupid, clumsy, awkward, and human. Not a flicker, but a fire — long-form clowning.

This gathering is intentionally timed with the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues (UNPFII). While delegates, organizers, and kin travel from across the world to be in NYC for this international convening, we want to create a space outside of the formal setting—where Indigenous people can come together in joy, build relationships, share stories, and feel held in community. Proceeds from this event will go directly to supporting Kichwa Hatari’s work in language revitalization, media justice, and grassroots organizing.
