Circus Juventas

Overview

&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />Circus Juventas is the largest youth circus arts school in the country and provides year-round circus training to youth ages 2-22 in over 75 specialty acts. Additionally, Circus Juventas presents three major public productions each year in the winter, spring, and late summer. The Holiday Show performances often explore festive winter themes and highlights the advanced performers. The Spring Celebration Performances feature the beginning- and intermediate-level students in April and May. The summer production features the most advanced students in a Cirque-du-Soleil-style production in late July and August. During the summer, CJ offers a wide range of summer camp options, all of which create a safe space where students can have new adventures, experience traditional and contemporary circus arts and global inspirations, and receive encouragement in a non-competitive and nurturing environment. Another of CJ's exciting events is their annual gala, an evening that pairs our students&rsquo; amazing performances with a three-course meal, a silent auction and raffle, fun games, and more. Dedicated to making classes accessible to all, Circus Juventas boasts a robust scholarship program to those that demonstrate financial need. CJ also invests in their work-study leadership program, a unique opportunity where CJ students age 14+ leverage their circus training to develop the self-confidence, communications skills, and attention to detail needed to become peer leaders - all while earning tuition credit toward their classes. Always looking to expand their repertoire, Circus Juventas invites visiting artists throughout the year to run workshops for students of varying levels. <br />
