Ultimately, Circle Academy will be offering workshops in a broad variety of subjects, including poi/fire-spinning, silks/aerials, contact juggling, bike repair, dj spinning, computer support, gardening, crochet, and much, much more! We'll also be organizing neighborhood clean-up days, drop-in DIY clinics, and hosting art and performance events.

Currently, we've begun a monthly event we call GRANT SLAM -- it's a sort of pot-luck funding project where everyone who comes to the event contributes to an art project through their entrance fee at the door. We've been able to give out $200 - $300+ to the winning project at each event. Maybe your project will be the next winner?? Check it out at Grant Slam.
