Madison Circus Space is a primarily volunteer-run, 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. We use your gifts to accomplish these goals:
- Cultivate and foster appreciation for circus and movement arts in Madison and beyond
- Champion our unique concept of a 24-hour circus arts space
- Hold performances with sliding-scale tickets
- Offer affordable memberships for hobbyists and professionals to train
- Provide rental space for qualified instructors who cannot afford their own buildings or studios to teach classes
- Maintain our building and equipment
- Grant scholarships to those in need
- Ensure a safe and supportive environment for everyone practicing circus arts at MCS
Help us repair our solar panel and roof damage!
After the recent hail storms, our building sustained significant damage to the roof and solar panel installation. We will need to replace the entirety of our solar panels and have a number of roof repairs completed, which will exceed our very sizable insurance deductible.
Your gift helps us repair recent storm damage so that we can return to being a solar-powered circus (prior to the storms, we were at 81% net offset month over month!). ☀️🎪
By supporting these repairs, you keep Madison Circus Space open for aerial students, jugglers, clowns, and families who gather here to move, create, and connect.
Every contribution—of any size—directly supports this building and the circus community that depends on it.
