Sitka Cirque Offers Many Performance Opportunities
Inspiring Creativity
Friends of Sitka Circus Arts (FOSCA), created in July 2016, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with the mission “to support Sitka Cirque in promoting wellness, creativity, and exploration within safe spaces and broadening the accessibility to and involvement in circus arts.”
In collaboration with Sitka Cirque, FOSCA produces two circus shows a year.
When you register for class, please let us know if you/your child plan to participate in the winter or spring cirque performances. Performing is not a requirement. If you do not want to perform, this will not affect your participation in class.
