Centro de Memória do Circo, Circus heritage museum in São Paulo, Brazil
The Centro de Memória do Circo occupies two levels within Galeria Olido, featuring exhibition spaces dedicated to circus arts and performance history.
The museum opened in November 2009 following the donation of artifacts from Circo Garcia, which toured Brazil from 1928 to 2003.
The collection includes photographs, costumes, documents, and audiovisual materials that document the development of circus arts in Brazil through generations.
Located at Avenida São João 473, the museum welcomes visitors Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 8 PM, and weekends from 1 PM to 8 PM.
In December 2015, the São Paulo Art Museum transferred its entire collection of Piolin clown memorabilia to enhance the museum's historical archives.
