2018 NYC American Youth Circus Festival
Sat Nov 3, 2018
9:00am to 8:00pm ET
Age: Ages 8-21
Price: Festival pass (includes four workshops, two meals, and one showcase): $55-$80; showcase ticket: $10
This full day of workshops at the Circus Warehouse in Long Island City for kids ages 8 to 21 (from beginner to advanced), includes lessons in trapeze, wire walking, clowning, partner acrobatics, juggling, stilt walking, unicycling, and more.
The entire day is capped off with showcase performances from all of the diverse and talented youth in attendance at the festival.
No experience necessary, so the brave and curious will have a full day to try new things, and advanced circus students will get to hone their skills with experienced professionals. Participation is limited, and previous years’ events have sold out, so pre-registration is strongly suggested. Early Bird Registration goes until October 3.
