PYCA News and Camp Scholarship Campaign: Send a kid to camp! – April 2026

CLICK HERE

It’s getting close to circus summer camp time again! The PYCA camps are extremely popular – all four weeks of our camp in Central Phoenix and all three weeks of our camp in Moab, Utah are sold out!

The spaces that remain are reserved for campers that can’t afford the camp fee. PYCA wants to be available to as wide a variety of kids as possible so we make it part of our mission to spread the joy to those who would otherwise miss out. But that requires that we receive donations to cover the cost. Can you help send a kid to camp?

2026 Camp Scholarship Campaign

Summer in Phoenix is not a “go outside and play” place – especially in recent years where we have been breaking records even beyond what has always been a challengingly hot place. Kids in the city need spaces to be active – to play and grow and develop new friendships and engage with new challenges.Circus camp is the perfect place for that.

Join other friends of Phoenix Youth Circus Arts who realize what a difference these scholarships can make. Any contribution great or small helps us generate more of those “Look what I can do!” moments that can build confidence in a kid – confidence that can last a lifetime.
