Opening Reception for Art Exhibition by Karen E. Gersch and Talk about the historical circus school: Circus Arts Center at the Hoboken Historical Museum. The School, established and run by Nina Krasavina and Gregory Fedin, provided most of the acts that composed the first few years of the Big Apple Circus and oversaw the training of two dozen students who went on to professional careers. Gersch - a celebrated painter - has captured portraits of her Russian teachers, as well as scenics from her decades touring with shows.
