Circus Artemis
Portland's new, family-friendly all-women circus!

Save the date, the next circus will be May 21-23, 2010!

Taking a cue from a legendary "strong woman," Portland's most powerful, most talented female circus artists have united under a common goal. Their mission? To blow audiences away with amazing feats of strength, skill and beauty.

Circus Artemis features the absolute finest female circus acts Portland has to offer, not to mention live music and a raffle of ridiculously fun prizes. And it all takes place in a unique, supportive atmosphere where women artists can shine.

Last October, our stellar lineup included: A-WOL Dance Collective (aerial and dance), Brittany Walsh (contortion/hand-balancing), Daniela Steiner (single point trapeze), Heather Pearl (clowning), Jack Stock Lynn (clowning), Kricket Caffery (aerial and puppets), Kyoko Uchida (aerial fabric), Shersten Finley (aerial straps), shireen press (aerial and poi), Sophie Bloch (live music), Pie for Breakfast String Band (live music), Sy Parrish (single point dance trapeze), Tera Nova Zarra (clowning) and our amazing MCs Mayra Acevedo & Sarah Farrell.

We also featured the talents of Summer Liddell (Lights), Adrianne Gunn (Sound), Sarah Hall (Stage Manager), Regina Galbick (House Manager).

Thanks to all our sponsors and volunteers, we couldn't have done it without you!
