Program areas at Yes Maam Circus
Chicago Circus & performing arts festival- 10 performing arts companies including Yes ma'aMaamam Circus produced 12 unique shows sold 500 tickets and paid over 30 artists from march 6-12 at the den theatre in chicago.
Story time- 6 free shows funded by a grant for chicago's night out in the parks summer series. 6 unique shows performed across 6 chicago public parks for a mix of under-served day camps and affluent areas featuring world myths told through Circus by a diverse cast of 15 artists.
Circus holiday market- a holiday market for local artisans featuring performances by local Circus artists. Free to the public with sliding scale vendor fees and a donation based craft table for kids.
The ccpaf is funded by a combination of public donations grants and ticket sales. The amount on line 1a reflects the ticket sale amounts that contributed to the festival's production. Grants only cover a portion of associated expenses like venue rental ads,and equipment needed to produce Circus arts. The festival is part of our exempt purposes as it provides access to art to under-served populations by providing sliding scale and donated tickets allows us to produce work created by bipoc and lgbtq artists and to create educational materials about Circus and the themes mentioned in shows for audiences.
Entertainment and education events covers all the other small projects Yes ma'aMaamam Circus participates in that are not large enough to have their own names. These include production fees from smaller companies to use our equipment and services to create new work performing at schools and day camps in chicago's under-served south side and corporate workshops to teach adults about Circus arts and how to support minority artist populations.
The holiday market & show was funded by "pay what you can" ticket rates and sliding scale vendor rates. It gave a platform for local artisans and Circus artists to show their work at low or no cost and provided a free safe space for kids to enjoy Circus arts and participate in arts creation.
