Flynn Creek Circus is coming to town and so we’re celebrating the magic of the circus on Saturday, Sept 6 with hands-on fun, circus-inspired activities, sweet treats, and special guests.
✨ Meet the incredible Flynn Creek Circus artists in a special Q&A in the Science Theatre at noon — your chance to hear behind-the-scenes stories and ask questions about life under the big top.
🎈 Try your hand at balloon animals, plate spinning, beginner-friendly optical illusions, and even test your balance on our “stepping stones” walk.
🎲 Play circus-themed games in the Galaxy Classroom, hosted by Fun Again Games.
🍿 Pick up some popcorn and cotton candy to snack on while you explore circus skills, creativity, and curiosity.
Whether you’re juggling, balancing, or simply enjoying the show, the circus truly comes alive when YOU join the fun!
