HOURGLASS: Work in Progress Showing
Artist in Residence: Luther Bangert
Circus Academy New York is proud to host this showing of the culmination of Luther Bangert's work as artist in residence this month. He will be presenting research with his current work, Hourglass - an ongoing research project and contemporary juggling performance exploring our relationship to ephemerality, patterning, materialism, and temporality throughout our lives and our human projects. The show is currently in development and will be a finished one hour show by the end of 2025, to be performed at circus and art festivals, theaters, museums, and galleries.

Join us in celebrating the achievements of our latest session students, who have been taking classes for 12 weeks since the end of March. These classes culminate in a workshop showcase where they can show off their hard work.
Attendees will be able to see each student throw a trick to a catcher, and maybe an aerial act or two from our staff! We will also have concessions available, so come down to Brooklyn to enjoy a full circus experience!
