Do you feel something electric in the air? A magic wind blowing, perhaps? Or something stirring in the depths?
You may be sensing the long, dark arms of some otherworldly creature stretching out from the collective unconscious to shake us all from our slumber and awaken the wild, the freaky, the feral force that dwell at the heart of this town we love.
Yes, Surreal Sirkus stirs again after its long hibernation in the aftermath of the Cosmic Eggs, for its 16th sometimes-annual freak show at Pack Square Park.
Boys and girls, theydies and gentlethems, it’s time for…
The Surreal Sirkus Arts Festival!!! Brought to you by Arts 2 People.
We’re back at Pack Square Park from noon until 10 pm on Saturday, Oct. 24 with three stages of live music, djs, local art vendors, food and libations, weird performances of many varieties, and of course, as always the event culminates in a one-of a kind show by the Surreal Sirkus at sunset.
We haven’t seen much of the Sirkus since the end of the Cosmic Eggs cycle last year. But something new is stirring in the cauldron, and we’ve got a whole new story to tell.
So join us for Asheville’s most bizarre celebration of the wonderful and weird things that make this community so unique! As always, the event is free and open to all.
So come get your freak on at the 16th Surreal Sirkus Arts Festival!
