End of the 2014 lawn, dawn of a New Era.

Well, here we are in October again, Bryant Park Jugglers' fifth one.  We're getting pretty good at scurrying around avoiding construction machinery while they load in the ice skating rink.  We are also getting used to juggling in the dark again.  We present here a few photographs from recent juggles, as well as photographs from some volunteer photographers.

Summer Streets wrapup and Unifest weekend kickoff

We had a fantastic time at the summer streets celebration in August.  Our two outings on 51st and Park were met with enthusiasm by the crowds in attendance.  between five and eight performers on each of the days and about twice that many volunteer teachers.

We had a grand time also welcoming the unicycle crowd to town.  For the fourth year, the Bryant Park jugglers, eight of us (many were in the group cycling from City Hall to Coney Island) met them out at Nathans.   We enjoyed juggling in front of police horses, eating treats from Nathans, including frog's legs (who knew?), the unicycle opening show, fireworks, and rode the Cyclone rollercoaster at about ten PM to cap off the night.   Truly one of our favorite nights of the year.

2014 Summer Streets!

Long time, no Blog...

We are super excited at the Bryant Park juggle about many things this time of year, chief of which is our participation in the Summer Streets festival, where the DOT shuts down nearly seven miles of Park avenue to create the city's biggest street fair.  Two weekends ago, on the 2nd of August, our crew came out and wowed the crowds with three fantastic acts and then taught any and all how to juggle.   Here is a link to video from the first one...
