West Memphis Civic Auditorium to host free Arkansas Circus Arts show

ralphhardin@gmail.com The newly-remodeled West Memphis Civic Auditorium will be on display when the West Memphis Convention and Visitors Bureau opens the door to the public for a free performance from Arkansas Circus Arts on Thursday, July 19, at 5 p.m.

The all-ages, familyfriendly show will feature a variety of fun and exciting acts. Arkansas Circus Arts (ACA) was founded in 2013 as Re-Creation Studios by entrepreneur, circus artist, and Little Rock native, Camille Rule as a hub for creative movement and circus style activity.

After a year of business ACA re-located to CrossFit Little Rock and in 2016 expansion and a new business partner, Rebeka Poland, led ACA to its current home nestled in downtown Little Rock on Cumberland Street. ACA makes it a point to be at many community events and share their passion for circus arts through their performances. Arkansas Circus Arts features acrobats, fire performers, stiltists, shadow screen dancers, jugglers, contortionists and a variety of unique acts that have to be seen, as they defy description.

The West Memphis Civic Auditorium is located at 228 W. Polk Ave. For more information, call (870) 7327597, or check out the CVB web page, www.visitwestmemphis.
