SANCA Summer Circus Soirée

Seattle, WA—The School of Acrobatics and New Circus Arts invites you to attend its annual summer open house featuring performances, the chance to interact with circus performers from all over the county, and the opportunity to learn a new circus art, all showcasing SANCA’s mission to bring non-competitive exercise and performance to kids of all ages in the heart of Georgetown. SANCA has much to celebrate in welcoming its brand-new Executive Director and its highest enrollment and scholarship funds to date. The Soirée is a chance for the entire SANCA community to reconnect and expand.

• Speak with kids and adults alike whose lives have been changed by SANCA’s unique approach to fitness at a time when childhood obesity rates have never been higher, and its all-inclusive scholarship policy
