All programming at NECCA will be mask optional based on the Windham County Guidelines for masking (Green: mask optional, Yellow: mask suggested, Red: masks required). NECCA reserves the right to change protocols on site, if necessary.
We encourage a culture of care for the health of others.
We ask that everyone respect the choices of others to mask or unmask when Green. We also ask you to kindly comply if someone asks you to mask around them.
NECCA is supported by the New England Foundation for the Arts through the New England Arts Resilience Fund, part of the United States Regional Arts Resilience Fund, an initiative of the U.S. Regional Arts Organizations and The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, with major funding from the federal CARES Act from the National Endowment for the Arts.
Please join us in thanking these companies for their support of NECCA.
To empower a community of artists, students, and staff to strengthen their skills and achieve their goals through the joyful and transformative power of circus arts.
