The troupe held a number of workshops during the week in Arviat and performed a big show on the evening of Oct. 5.

Artcirq mixes modern circus arts – such as acrobatics, juggling, and clowning – with traditional Inuit cultural practices, including Inuit traditional games, throat singing, and drum dancing.
