About the Portland Jugglers

We embrace all kinds of juggling, object manipulation, and circus skills. We are famously playful and generous with the sharing of our juggling knowledge.​

The Portland Jugglers is a nonprofit educational organization dedicated to increasing the appreciation and enjoyment of juggling and its affiliated arts.


Reed College began offering juggling as a PE class in 1979, and it was open to the public who frequently brought new skills to the college class. The public component grew into the Portland Jugglers. Additionally, we have hosted the Portland Juggling Festival at Reed nearly every year of the festival's existence.
