Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Our Goals include:
Providing free/reduced Circus Programs for schools
Offering scholarships to individual students for circus camps
Touring NW Reservations to host Circus Enrichment Residencies
Promoting arts education and fitness!
Work with local hospitals and care facilities and children's homes

We plan on bi-annual fundraising events and applying for grants from local funders to enable us to offer our services to schools free of charge.
We plan on using our big top more and more and creating events to promote our cause

Each year we extended our Schools program into new schools
In order to fulfill these tasks we hire and train new Teaching Artist's.

We now have saved up and bought three Circus Tents.
We usually host eight weeks of Camps each year and 35 weeks of classes in Schools
