Meet the Team

Circus Smirkus owes its unique spirit and innovation to a team of seasoned professionals passionate about circus arts, education, and community building. Founded by Rob Mermin, who studied under mime legend Marcel Marceau and performed internationally with renowned circuses, Smirkus brings decades of experience to every camp session.

Venue Details

Circus Smirkus Camp is nestled on a picturesque 38-acre property in the rolling hills of Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom. This magical site, envisioned by Smirkus Founding Director Rob Mermin, embodies the spirit of the circus. The heart of the campus includes a 150+ year-old farmhouse, serving as a welcoming home for year-round staff, and the Circus Barn, a charmingly converted horse stable where the Smirkus journey began. Training takes place under authentic big-top tents, creating an immersive and nostalgic circus atmosphere for campers.
