The Arc clown troupe, "Clowning-A-Round," was invited to have lunch and perform for the Ringling Brothers clowns while they were in Baltimore. Ringling Brothers met The Arc clown troupe two years ago and invited them back again this year. The "meet & greet" was held at Illusions Magic Bar & Theater in Baltimore. Everyone had a great time and the professional clowns especially enjoyed the show!
