Clowns are performers of comedy and arts, usually wearing bright costumes and make up. Clowns commonly perform in circuses meaning they feature a lot in our National Fairground and Circus Archive held here @unisheffieldlib.bsky.social Some people consider clowns humorous right?... #EYAHumour 🤡

Now the sun is out, why not take a study break outside? ☀️ If you are at the Information Commons, just ask a member of staff between 9am-5pm in the week if you can use a deckchair or a picnic blanket and make the most of the sun on campus!
