Hannah Gumbrielle, Communications and Administrative Officer

Hannah Gumbrielle joined ADI as Communications and Administrative Officer in December 2023.

Hannah began working in access to arts while in the circus and dance sector. A multidisciplinary aerial artist and coach in Taking Flight, she focused on the development of community arts participation, particularly youth and disability inclusion.

She is passionate about inclusive teaching practices and making circus arts accessible to artists and audiences, working closely with community groups as well as exploring the topic of queerness, illness, ability, and diversity in her own arts practice. In 2021 she began Circus Club in collaboration with St. Michael’s House, running circus classes for children with disabilities and additional needs in collaboration with their physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and early intervention specialists.

Hannah has recently debuted her solo show Malignant Humour as part of Dublin Fringe Festival and Scene + Heard (2024). She has performed as part of Aduantus’ To Odin Offered (2022), Culture Night (2019, 2021, 2022), Taking Flight’s Create Project (2019, 2021), the Irish Aerial Creation Centre’s Creative Intensive (2021), and graduated with Ecole Nationale de Cirque, in Circus Instruction (2019). She is the recipient of a Dance Ireland Residency, a Dublin City Arts Office Bursary Award, multiple Arts Council Agility Awards, and the Circus Bursary Award in 2022.
