And just like that! School has begun and summer feels over! (Even if we still have a few more days until the official end date)

See just a little 🤏🏽 bit of what we did this summer like:

• spent the week The Farm School with our friends the farmers and the cows! 🐮 🌾
• explored the forest high and low with members of Kirkos Hale Education 🌳
• performed at local community events like Roslindale Farmers Market and DSNI Multicultural Festival 🎉😎
• organized our very first full length Circus Up staff act for Boston SCORES closing ceremony ⚽️🏅
• brought the circus to the Berkshires with our friends Multicultural BRIDGE ⛰️
• and of course kept working on our juggling and balance skills all summer long! 🤹🏽‍♀️🤸🏽
