We are excited to announce that the Madison Community Foundation has awarded the Madison Circus Space a $50,000 challenge grant, which means that every dollar donated between now and May 1st will be doubled, up to $50,000.
If successful, this challenge will bring our total to 75% of our goal! We hope that you will take advantage of this fantastic opportunity! To learn more, please visit our capital campaign page.
The Madison Community Foundation stewards local charitable funds. MCF inspires giving, supports meaningful initiatives, and connects people for the common good.

We value your safety, so that is why every year we ask our members, students, and guests to sign a new waiver so you can review the risks and responsibilities associated with active participation at the circus space. Save yourself some time on your next visit and sign it now!
