As we draw to a close on our 12th year of contemporary circus, we revisit so many moments: great performances, wonderful artists, fabulous audiences, supportive donors — all of this that we have done together — we can't help but feel so utterly grateful for this beautiful life.
2025 was an amazing year: we brought two full-length productions to the stage amidst the chaos of the world. We look forward to bringing more real people doing super human circus to the stage in 2026 and for this we are asking for your help. We are having a December Fundraiser with a goal of $10,000 so that we can:
- cover our overhead expenses
- pay for our space rental at 12th Ave Arts for our summer run of The Circus of Second Chances
- Supply us with gas money and transport costs so that we can bring The Circus of Second Chances to Edmonton for the Alberta Circus Arts Festival this summer
- begin researching new creative projects
- put bread in the hands of professional circus artists and auteurs so they can create passion projects
