Here’s a simple way to support Nevada kids currently battling cancer, those who will be diagnosed in the future and the state’s only nonprofit pediatric cancer clinic that treats children regardless of medical insurance.

Circus Couture’s “Possession(s)” happens Sunday, December 8, 2013 at The Joint, inside the Hard Rock Hotel Casino in Las Vegas and benefits the Children’s Specialty Center of Nevada.  It is a night of performance, fashion and art brought together through the talents of performers, technicians, artists and volunteers.   All of them take part because they care about the community in which they work and live.  Many are performers in well-known shows on the Las Vegas Strip.

Now in its fourth year, Circus Couture includes both a silent and live art auction paired with a breathtaking circus spectacle featuring sensational runway fashion.

“From the outside, Las Vegas appears to be a land of glitter and flash, but this community is so much deeper than that,” says Erica Linz, President of Circus Couture and star of the film Cirque du Soleil: Worlds Away 3D.  “There is a kinship between those who make this the “Entertainment Capital of the World” and the innovators that give their all to make Las Vegas a place where kids are assured a healthy future.  It is an amazing thing to witness when those passions collide.”   With their sister fundraising team Cirque du SoBald, Circus Couture has raised well over a quarter million dollars for pediatric cancer care and research.
