Come to the Second Annual Portland Juggling Festival, the weekend of April 9,
10 & 11, at the Reed College Sports Center in Portland, Oregon. The festival
features workshops, demonstrations and lots of open juggling in two large
gymnasiums, plus special guests, prop vendors, prizes, games, and a really
great time. Beginning three-ball juggling lessons taught continuously for
want-to-be jugglers.

All activities of juggling arts, circus skills and object manipulation welcome:
unicycle, hacky sack, rope tricks, ball spinning, tight rope, yoyo, devil
sticks, club swinging, diabolo, contact juggling, and more! Last year's
festival drew over 200 jugglers from all over the west coast and beyond. This
year promises to be even better!
