Photos from The Disability Arts Festival in early August. Thank you to for hosting such a wonderful event.

We love leading a touch tour of our circus props and having the opportunity for our youth troupe to perform with a live audio description of their performance.

This is our second year attending, and it gets better every year! It's always a joy to meet so many friendly people and to share the magic of circus with community members of all ages.

Photo 1: a performer in a green outfit hangs from their knees off of a light purple aerial silk hanging from the bottom of an aerial hoop, using the silk they pull their head towards their toes. In the background, a crowd of people watch from the shade of the trees.

Photo 2: A performer in a black outfit with red tights leans half out of an aerial hoop, one leg stretched below and one behind them, toes pointed, their hand making an expressive gesture.

Photo 3: A performer hangs from purple aerial silks, their legs moving as if walking; they are dressed as a marionette, with their arms wrapped in the aerial silks. Smiling in the direction of the crowd.]

Creative thinking 🤹

Did you know that all of our older groups (ages 11+) create their own routines for the year end show? There are varying degrees of coach support as appropriate but the ideas all come from the performers themselves!

We do this to give young minds the opportunities to flex their creative muscles, and empower performers to create routines that they’re engaged with and excited about.

However it has the added benefit of us getting to enjoy some pretty darn creative routines.

Take for example this hilarious routine from Thing 1 & Thing 2. Aerial silks, juggling, stunts, slapstick comedy, this has it all. And the performers made their own costumes and dyed or covered their hair so that ut was blue. A true commitment, and fantastically entertaining!

This is what happens when you let creativity run free!
