John Kirk, Publicity Vice President for the Circus City Festival Board of Directors, says ,like everything else, the pandemic has been hard for the annual program, making the board concerned for the festivals future and potentially even the economy of Peru.

Circus City Festival Inc has started a fundraiser to shrink any fears of COVID impacting future festivals. 

The festival has been a tradition in Peru for over six decades. 

When we spoke to Kirk Saturday, he said the community has banned together for the program and meeting their goal isn't looking to be impossible. 

Kirk says anyone can donate to the program by checking out their Facebook page.
