Circus Center

PERFORMANCE: Circus Center produced a full season of in-person shows, producing 34 performances of 8 major productions featuring professional and student circus artists. These shows employ dozens of circus, music, and variety artists annually. Collectively our performances serve thousands of audience members every year, all at accessible ticket prices.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT: Circus Center partners with schools and community organizations to offer circus arts activities to underserved young people. This year, we continued and grew our after-school program at a center for economically disadvantaged children. We also continued our regular series of community open houses to provide low-barrier introductions to the world of circus. And for those young people who get bit by the circus bug, we offer generous need-based financial assistance and other support for their participation in all of our on-site youth programming.
