Once in a Blue Moon...the Circus Comes to SMoCA!
Join fellow Night Circus dreamers Saturday, May 11, 2013 at the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art (SMoCA). Be immersed in a full circle experience of the senses inside the Museum. Encounter a living art installation of performers who will astound you. See intriguing costumed acrobats, contortionists, and aerialists, close enough to touch. Experience each gallery transformed into magical, dream-like settings of color, sound and spectacle.
Night Circus cuisine takes 'circus food' to a new level as upscale, abundant hors d'oeuvres tantalize your taste buds. Indulge in our signature cocktail at the hosted bar.
Night Circus will envelop you in a phenomenal, phantasmagorical, one-of-a-kind event.
