Get ready for New York City's fourth annual juggling convention, Juggle These, which begins in two weeks! This year will be bigger than ever. Will it be better? You be the judge—or be the participant who makes it better.
It all begins Thursday, March 31, at the Tony Dapolito Recreation Center (formerly knows as Carmine Street). All visitors are welcome, free of charge, from 7-10 pm. Afterwards, join us across the street at the Buddha House Chinese restaurant. We should warn them first—last year we almost filled the place!
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday the festival moves to the Activities Resource Center on Pratt Institute's Brooklyn campus. Along with open juggling, there will be workshops, games, vendors, a raffle, and more! All events are free and open to the public, and all levels of jugglers (and non-jugglers) are welcome. Please note that the location of Friday night juggling has changed from last year—we've got the good gym the whole time.
Saturday night at 7 pm, is the Juggle These Show Spectacular featuring a terrific line-up of international jugglers and other variety artists. Last year's show sold out, and this year the ticket price has been lowered to $5, so make sure to buy yours early to guarantee a seat.
Officially, Juggle These ends Sunday night, but the fun doesn't. On Sunday night, avoid the post festival crash with the Bindlestiff Family Cirkus' final performance of From the Gutter to the Glitter, an intimate tour of American entertainment history. On Monday, head out and explore the city with visiting jugglers, and then reconvene at Tony D. from 8-10 pm for more juggling!
Besides all of this, did you know the Pratt campus is the largest sculpture garden in New York City? It's free and open year-round, so let's hope for nice weather, and plan some time to walk around and check out the art.

See you there!
