American Circus Alliance Launch April 22

Arts & Culture

The organization, called the American Circus Alliance, is an all volunteer group representing a broad spectrum of circus genres. The group is in the process of filing for not for profit status, and has been hard at work during the pandemic putting the nuts and bolts of the organization together in preparation for a formal launch on April 22nd. Mark Lonergan, co-chair of the ACA board and artistic director of Parallel Exit, explained that the April 22nd launch is a chance for those interested to add their perspective and help build a resilient national organization. “Membership will be open for enrollment on that day through our website – free for 2021. It's also a day to have people virtually sign a letter we have written as part of the “Be An Arts Hero” campaign.
