To Achieve This Vision, The Entire Ecosystem Of American Circus Needs To Be Supported And Nurtured.
-
Recognition of circus as an art form – by funders, presenters, audiences.
-
Funding for the creation and continuation of new and existing circus companies and productions.
-
Circus training and employment that is accessible, equitable, inclusive, and looking to say clearly and effectively: free of harassment, abuse, inequality.
-
A clear and tangible bridge between the study of circus performance and production and the profession.
-
Cooperative programs that directly benefit the American circus industry, such as reasonably priced group insurance plans.
-
A network of presenters dedicated to creating a touring circuit for American circus companies and productions.
-
A service and advocacy organization that has a seat at the table for the formation of cultural policy at the national, regional, and local level.
