Gainesville Circus Center

The Gainesville Circus Center is a 501(c)3 non-profit social circus. Our mission is to build community through quality instruction and performance of circus arts. As a social circus, we aim to provide circus arts experiences to all, especially at-risk youth. We understand “at-risk youth” to be those facing disadvantages dues to socioeconomic status, race and gender orientation. Circus arts have the power to build strength on physical, emotional and mental levels; and to promote cross-cultural and inter-generational collaboration.
