FAT BEAR WEEK KICKOFF!
It's Fat Bear Week again! We'll be having a party on Fat Bear Eve to meet this year's contenders, fill out brackets, and generally appreciate the fat bears of Katmai National Park and Preserve (and all the other fat bears out there too). $10 a bear bracket-- half the pot will go to the winner(s), and we'll donate the other half to the Otis Fund at Katmai Conservancy. But you can still come appreciate the bears even if you don't want to do a bracket. In the meantime, check out the bear cams from Explore.org- endlessly fascinating! (fyi: the Fat Bear Junior competition happens on September 26th-27th. Who will be the bear baby of the year?!) Tuesday, October 1st. 6:30 pm. Free! BYOB and BYOSalmon! MAMMA MIA PARTY!

Welcome to the Petting Zoo. This is the world’s only comedy show featuring live exotic animals. New York’s top comics have to perform while holding snakes, birds, lizards, bugs, and other cool creatures. Between sets, you can interact up-close with the animals and learn from Ranger Eric Powers and his team of professional nature guides. We promise you haven’t been to a show like this. Hosted by Mike Kandel and Charlie Sosnick! Featuring Jaboukie Young-White, Chloe Radcliffe, and Jess Elgene!! Friday, September 6th. 8pm. MAGIC EFFECTS WORKSHOP
This workshop is a crash course in the art of magic for those working in any aspect of the performing arts (circus artists, actors, comedians, dancers, directors and others). Joe Culpepper* will share secret sleight-of-hand techniques and research tools for adapting magic effects to your future shows. You will learn how to make objects magically appear, transform, and vanish. You will learn how to create illusions using your body. Most important of all, you will learn how to think and direct attention like a magician. No previous magic experience necessary. *Dr. Joe Culpepper is a magician, performance scholar and magic consultant. He is a former Mitacs Elevate postdoctoral fellow at Cirque du Soleil’s C:Lab and Concordia University. Joe has taught magic and its adaptation to the circus arts at Montreal’s National Circus School, the Centre National des Arts du Cirque, the Lido, UC Davis, and beyond.

He performs in California and internationally. He has written a doctoral dissertation on magic effects, worked for Cirque du Soleil headquarters, and is an associate researcher at Montreal’s National Circus School.
