About PCT’s Summer Program
Prescott Circus Theatre’s 6-week summer program combines Circus Arts, Academic Enrichment, and Leadership Training, serving 25-30 students (ages 8–21). Participants train with professional artists in circus and performing arts through a culturally relevant and responsive curriculum, while also engaging in academic activities to strengthen math, literacy, and critical thinking skills.
