We are highlighting “Blanc sur blanc” by .lizarazu happening at the Barn on Saturday, August 1 at 7:30 PM.

We initially spelled Iman’s name wrong in our season announcement post, so we had to remove it—but we don’t want people to miss this whimsical and poetic journey into the world of the clown!

Starting today!
Hoop diving, Pyramids and Cartwheels oh my!
This 8 week performance class is for kids who want to perform in the acro/tumbling act in our Spring show. We will have a primary focus on act creation and presentation.

This class runs every Thursday from 3:30pm-4:45pm
Group acrobatic acts require consistent attendance as this is a collaborative endeavor where we all rely on one another to execute big group poses.

Thanks to grants and community support, we offer sliding-scale pricing HICCUP Circus classes.
Families are invited to contribute what they can so every child has access.

Last session, family contributions covered about 30% of teacher costs. Mahalo for making this possible!
