Spring Events at the SHAC Center!
Circus Lab Youth Camps at SHAC
April 6-10, 2026
Ages: 7-17
Times: 9:00 am-3:00 PM
Early Drop Off: 8:00 am
Extended Care: 3:00-5:00 PM
This dynamic camp blends circus arts and physical theater, introducing campers to foundational circus skills while exploring movement, acrobatics, and creative expression. Through tumbling, balance, partner work, and movement-based storytelling, participants build strength, coordination, confidence, and collaboration.
Each day combines active play with collective creation, welcoming beginners and experienced movers alike. The week ends with a relaxed, informal sharing of the work created together. No prior experience needed—just curiosity and a willingness to move and play

Puzzle Swap
Come one, come all and participate in our first ever puzzle swap!
Bring in your used puzzles! Be sure to have them securely closed with tape or the pieces in a closed bag inside the box. And swap them for someone else's puzzle.
For example: Bring in 5 puzzles and take home 5 new-to-you puzzles - or more 
If you have puzzles with missing pieces, just label how many pieces are missing, as they will go on a different table.
If you want to donate your puzzles and not take any home - you are welcome to do so and you can bring as many as you want.
There is no limit on how many puzzles you can bring. Please no Puzzle Bug or Dollar Store puzzles.
If you don't have a puzzle to swap, come anyway and get one for free!
This event will take place in our event space from 9am-3pm and is being organized in conjunction with Candice Pollay, who organizes free community puzzle events in the Capital District.
Bring your friends! This is a free event! Spread the word!
