The Big Apple Circus

When: October 22, 2009 - January 18, 2010

Where: New York City

From the website: "BELLO IS BACK!
under the Big Apple Big Top performing breath-taking feats of humor in the theatrical focus of one ring with no seat more than 50 feet away!

It seems like only yesterday that this daredevil clown made his hair-raising New York debut with the Big Apple Circus. He’s been a big star all over the world ever since and was named "America's Best Clown" by Time Magazine.

Bello is joined by a world of stellar circus stars: Spain’s juggling artiste, Picaso Jr., Russia’s Aniskin Troupe who catapult to the top of the tent on trampoline and soar across it on trapeze. For sheer beauty our very own aerialist Regina Dobrovitskaya rises through the air on shimmering ribbons. Equestrians Christine and Sultan get your heart pounding as they straddle galloping horses Roman style, and wait till you see what our company members can do with a pack of whacky dogs rescued from shelters!

Of course there’s more and for an extra measure of love and laughter, there’s our very own Grandma.
So do like Bello—come on back! The Big Apple Circus is your circus, Big Apple is back in town! "

Terra Cotta Warriors: Guardians of China's First Emperor

When: November 19, 2009 - March 31, 2010

Where: National Geographic Museum - 1145 17th Street, Washington, D.C.

From the website: "Soldiers. Charioteers. Archers. Musicians. Generals. Acrobats. Nearly 2,000 years ago, thousands of life-size clay figures were buried in massive underground pits to accompany China's first emperor, Qin Shihuangdi, into the afterlife. Their discovery outside the city of Xi'an in 1974 is one of the greatest archaeological finds of the 20th century.

Now, you can stand face-to-face with these terra cotta warriors. In November 2009, National Geographic Museum will host Terra Cotta Warriors: Guardians of China’s First Emperor, an exhibition featuring treasures from the tomb complex including 15 life-size figures, weapons, armor, coins, and more. Don't miss this chance to see the largest collection of significant artifacts from China ever to travel to the United States."
