Circus Smart Speaker Series
Every month we will have a new speaker and will be learning from leading circus researchers, educators, and experts in related fields. Talks will be on Sundays with the times and dates specific to the speaker’s availability and time-zone.
Can’t make it live? No worries!!!
The talks will be recorded in case you can’t make it and for those of you signed up for the full year you will maintain access throughout 2025.
AND
You will be able to send questions in advance so they can get answered by the speaker when they are live.
