Our MissionCircus of Smiles offers enrichment programming to schools, libraries, and organizations through classes, performance, and circus entertainment. We inspire learning and FUN by bringing the circus to you.
|
Our workshops and classes give people a chance to do things they never thought possible: juggling, building human pyramids, and even feeling confident giving a book report in front of the whole class.
|
Our events are filled with non-stop excitement and family-friendly theatrics that get people laughing, audience members participating, and everyone hoping for more.
|
Our outreach team offers local and international circus experiences to those who need smiles the most. A portion of the funds from each booking go toward supporting our outreach efforts in Oakland and abroad.

Where We Come From
Our roots are in social circus. In 2011, Circus of Smiles was launched with a performance tour across Southeast Asia. Since then, our shows and workshops have made their way across Central and South America. To date, our outreach efforts have led us to teach and perform in schools, youth shelters, orphanages, hospitals, elder care facilities, community and emergency centers, and touched the lives of over 1,300 people abroad.
In 2013, we shifted our focus to the Bay Area and decided to impact kids who are close to home. By partnering with schools and libraries to offer affordable circus experiences for youth and their families. Today you can find Circus of Smiles classes in more than 20 schools as well as over 75 free shows a year in libraries across the bay area.
