The Circus Is Coming

What Visitors Have To Say

Great place to visit or do a group tour! Stacey Bravick - Tampa

Great collection of carny memorabilia with pleasant staff. Hours of history buff entertainment. With these carnivals, circuses and fairs slowly dying, this soon might be the only place to see these treasures of youthful fun and outdoor entertainment growth. Many items from the personal collections of carnival performers! Would have loved to have had more time to investigate. Anjelica Timms - Tampa

From Group Tour March 2018

Dear Doc, What an enjoyable trip you provided for The Friends of the Riverview Library! So much we didn't know about this museum gem. It is wonderful that the past is being preserved for future generations. We will be sure to tell our friends. Sincerely, Pat Boyle, Secretary of the FOL

Well worth the cost!! We loved seeing the memorabilia and photos from the early days. The owner is on site and available for questions and the lady at the counter is a true southern bell!! Wade Tiller - Tampa
