PROGRAM
The Circus is Coming to Town (The Circus is Coming to CPR) is an immersive event combining interactive installations and a curated gallery exhibition. Upon entering, attendees are invited to touch and explore the artworks—flipping switches, spinning pieces, listening to stories, and more. Visitors also encounter games, hands-on activities, and refreshments that echo the festive energy of a traditional circus or carnival.
