The 2015 Somerville Open Air Circus took place this past weekend at Nunziato Field in Somerville
OPEN AIR Circus is a non-profit community-based circus. Our primary program is our summer circus, where we offer classes and performances each summer. In addition, they offer workshops and a teen-leadership program, and performance opportunities to people of all ages.
From the end of June through the end of July they teach circus and performing skills in a non-competitive atmosphere. Their classes are 1 hour long in the afternoon.
They then rehearse for a week, and put on four full circus performances under a big top, typically in Nunziato Field, in Union Square, Somerville, during the first weekend in August.
