Circus Smirkus provides big-top benefits
By Genevieve Martineau
Many kids dream of running away with the circus, but did you know they actually can? Celebrating its 35th anniversary in 2022, Circus Smirkus is a nonprofit, circus-arts organization that inspires kids of all ages to develop artistic, athletic, and life skills through the power of performance.
The mission of the organization is simple in theory and thoughtfully executed in practice: “To promote the skills, culture, and traditions of the traveling circus, and to inspire youth to engage in life-changing adventures in the circus arts.” Three programs—School Residencies, Smirkus Camp, and Big Top Tour—blend the best of circus tradition and contemporary practice to create immersive experiences that challenge kids to perform and live to the best of their abilities. Smirkus also prides itself on raising money each year for financial-aid scholarships. Board President Michele Levy says, “Our goal is to bring the magic of Smirkus to as many children and youth as possible. In 2022, we were able to award over $90,000 in scholarships, and we hope to offer even more next year.”
