New England Center for Circus Arts

The New England Center for Circus Arts (NECCA) is a non-profit circus school based in Brattleboro, Vermont. As of 2016, the School reported 6,000 students.[1]

Originally in the Old Cotton Mill, in Brattleboro,[1] the school moved into a new custom-built facility off Putney Road in 2017, which includes an 8,600 square foot gym.[2] The new facility required a 2.5 million dollar capital campaign, and was designed by Turner Brooks Architects.[2][3][4] The school had been growing continuously since its inception in 2007.[2][1] The school was founded by Serenity Smith Forchion and Elsie Smith.[1]
