Check out 152 Cherry Street, former home of Outdoor Gear Exchange and new home of Church of Circus!
This project brings a core group of Burlington artists together during the month of August to create an interactive, spectacular, accessible, performative, informative space for art.
The Church of Circus is a ‘pop-up’ group art exhibit installed temporarily in the space that was formerly Outdoor Gear Exchange, a huge retail space in downtown Burlington. In a dizzying installation of sculpture, painting, photography and performance, ten Vermont-based artists plan to put their own spin on the Brechtian tradition of collaboration and audience participation as a vehicle to aesthetic experience. The Church of Circus preaches ‘Art For All’, creating an interactive lively and provocative atmosphere for all who enter.
