A kitchen becomes a juggler's paradise. A rock concert morphs into an acrobatics contest. A table cloth entangles unsuspecting diners high above the floor. A hip-hop B-boy battles martial artists for tea.

Get ready for this year's Open House Arts Festival - where circus arts rise up from the underground with amazing physical feats and colorful stunts inspired by our everyday lives! There's something for every member of your family at this jaw-dropping, eye-popping, free day of fun. Plus, don't miss plenty of artists from the local and national scene, including some of the Kennedy Center's own companies and affiliates.
