IRS990/Desc0Our biggest core function is providing circus instruction to the public. These classes were attended by students ranging from 7 years of age to students in their mid 60s. These classes had their highest attendance since the start of the pandemic and saw two students move on to professional circus schools. Our teen and youth classes enjoyed notable attendance boosts, even with these departures.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0We offer youth programming during school breaks. This year, despite running fewer weeks of programming, the programs were well attended and gave recent students who had received their certification a chance to improve their instruction skills.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Our organization ran two student showcases in 2024 and both showcases had more participants and more audience attendance than in 2023. The showcases were a tremendous success in not only helping students learn skills, but highlighting what we do as an organization, helping further growth.
