A weekly gathering of jugglers, hoopers, flow artists, and other object manipulators, including magic, sideshow and other obscure performing arts. There's no formal show, but curious onlookers may see some things flying.

A forum for Jugglers & Circus artists to share tricks, try out new moves, or simply kick back, talk shop, and meet other likeminded artists. If you don't have any circus skills, don't worry. You are still always welcome to come by. ( And maybe even break out that old TopHat for kicks.)

Come celebrate love and local history with the "Outlander in the Cape Fear" walking tour on February 13, May 8, August 7 and November 13!

The walking tour will invite guests to walk in the footsteps of Claire and Jamie Fraser from the global phenomenon book and Starz TV series, "Outlander." Using the North Carolina history that is laced into the romance series, guests will be able to learn about the Colonial Wilmington that real Scottish Highlanders like Claire and Jamie found when they arrived in America in the 1770s.

The walking tour will depart from the Burgwin-Wright House (224 Market Street) at 9 a.m. and run 90 minutes, stopping at about a dozen places downtown. Please wear comfortable shoes and bring water to drink.

Tickets are $25 + tax. Please call 910-762-0570 to reserve your tickets now.
