The Portland Jugglers Present the 32nd annual Portland Juggling Festival! A community event featuring a weekend of juggling workshops, games, open gym time, and a big vaudeville extravaganza. 

The Portland Jugglers are so excited to return to Reed College! Due to the brand new gym floors the college has requested:

 
  1. No outdoor/street shoes. Attendees may wear indoor shoes, slippers, socks, or be barefoot. Please bring clean shoes if you don't want to wear socks or be barefoot.

  2. All club screws must be covered. PJF will be providing, at $1 per knob donation to Portland Jugglers, polyurethane replacement knobs with built-in screw covers. These knobs are very durable and come in four colors: Black, white, red, shiny gold. PLEASE BE PREPARED TO MODIFY YOUR CLUBS! The Portland Jugglers will have a table set up with screwdrivers and assistants so you can switch your knobs. No unmodified clubs allowed in gym unless they were built without exposed screws (Ex: Renegade).

All Festival Participants Must Sign a Waiver:
