The Bellingham Circus Guild

Since 2008 the Bellingham Circus Guild has bolstered the circus arts and performers of Whatcom County. Composed of acrobats, clowns, aerialists, jugglers, and more, the Guild’s facility offers one-of-a-kind shows, classes, and events.

One popular event is Vaudevillingham, a recurring, monthly showcase of local performers and artists. The uncensored show is never pre-screened, practiced, or performed at any other Vaudevillingham, ensuring a unique experience every time. The event is designed to inspire, encourage, and promote the circus community while also offering local performers a way to try out new material.

Why just watch when you can participate? The guild offers a variety of classes such as dorky dance fitness classes, aerial instruction, and occasional workshops in theater, clowning, and acting. Classes are held at the guild’s cirque lab location in Fairhaven.
