Juggling Workshop!
Learn to juggle with Kenny Mikey, a former Ringling Bros. clown!
Kenny will teach you the five “Ps” of juggling: Patience, Persistence, Practice, Positive Attitude, and P-fun! You’ll start by juggling scarves, then learn how to make your own juggling balls. No scarves? No problem! You can use plastic grocery bags. And the balls are made from balloons and birdseed. You’ll have a“ball” in this fun, interactive workshop.
