Saturday Family Entertainment Series
ARTFARM, November 18th at 1PM

Hamden – The Hamden Arts Commission in collaboration with Hamden’s Department of Arts, Culture, Recreation and Wellness is proud to invite all children and families to the circus performance of mAyhEm performed by ARTFARM featuring Janoah as the second event in the Saturday Family Entertainment Series. 

Janoah will delight you with his unicycle shenanigans, juggling, balance, dance, object manipulation and whacky comedy.   He has a wonderful way of engaging children and adults in audience and getting you to participate in the show!

ARTFARM is a non-profit theater and circus company located in Middletown, CT that offers classes and performances on site and school residencies throughout the Northeast.  They have been recognized by the National Endowment of the Arts, CT Commission on the Arts, Middlesex Commission on the Arts, CT Humanities and Community Foundation of Middlesex County. ARTFARM specializes in four main performative areas: Ensemble-Created New Works, Shakespeare, Circus Arts and Commedia dell’Arte.
