ABOUT
Join us for the 3rd Annual Circus Soirée, where guests will be treated to a special circus performance by CircEsteem youth and staff, a live and silent auction, and an opportunity to try walking a tightrope or rolling around in a human-sized hamster wheel. Circus Soirée proceeds benefit CircEsteem's HomeWork & CircusWork program, an afterschool program that provides tutoring, circus arts training, and healthy snacks to more than 30 youth three times a week throughout the school year.

Since 2001, CircEsteem's mission has been to unite youth from diverse racial, cultural, and economic backgrounds by helping them build self-esteem and mutual respect through the practice of circus arts. Our curriculum includes clowning, juggling, stilt-walking, unicycling, and acrobaticsall of which is taught by professional circus staff and is designed to allow students to progress at their own pace. By overcoming obstacles and achieving goals, our students demonstrate increased self-esteem, higher grade point averages, and new found circus skills.
