Dear Synapse Students, Families, and Community Partners,

 
We are writing today with some bittersweet news. At the end of June, we will have to vacate the current Synapse facility due to failed negotiations with the landlord to extend our lease.
 
We do not yet have a new location secured. The immediate future for having our own location in the Auburn area is not clear, but we are searching, and we remain committed to securing a space that we can call home for many years to come. 
 
What does all this mean and how does it affect current and future programming at Synapse?  
 
·       Current session classes will continue at Synapse through June 24th as scheduled.
·       Summer session classes at Synapse are cancelled.
·       Summer camps onsite are cancelled. Registrants may be refunded or we will work with families / students to transfer credit to programs offered at SANCA Seattle or Emerald City Trapeze Arts.
·       Offsite partnership camps over the summer will continue as planned.
·       Scheduled birthday parties beginning in July will be refunded or credited based on personal preference. 
·       Youth company practices will be moved to an alternate location, and previously scheduled performances will happen as scheduled. 
 
As an alternative, we do encourage students and families to consider coming to our other two locations, SANCA Seattle and Emerald City Trapeze Arts.  We would be happy to transfer credits for use at either of these locations.
 
We apologize for the inconvenience this may have on the entire Synapse community and want to share our appreciation of the commitment that our students, families, and partners have had to our school. We look forward to re-establishing and expanding programming moving forward, and we encourage everyone to stay connected to our newsletter and social media for future updates and announcements. 
 
Everyone registered in classes or camps beyond July 1 will be contacted soon with additional information.  Until then, please send questions and inquiries to office@synapsecircus.com.  
 
We look forward to continuing to provide circus programming in the Auburn area.  We appreciate your patience as we work through these changes.
​
Thank you.
