Tax Payer Funded Clown School in San Francisco

No kidding…

(CNSNews.com) – The federal government is funding a clown school located in House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco-based congressional district that has classes and workshops on “Precision Idiocy” and how to act like a “Buffoon.”

The school, which is called the “Clown Conservatory” and is part of the nonprofit Circus Center, received a $10,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts for the period that runs from June 2017 through May 2018.

The center says that the Clown Conservatory is “the United States’ only professional training program for clowns and physical comedians.”

“Clown Conservatory is a multidisciplinary training program in physical comedy, precision idiocy and eccentric acting,” says the school’s brochure.

“Our program’s directive,” it says, “is to foster the super-versatile Human Cartoon.”

The organization’s website lists classes and workshops that include “Character Morphing,” “Buffoon,” and “Precision Idiocy: Micro-Crafting Physical Comedy.”

The summary of the grant published by the NEA says: “The training will help prepare artists to meet the demands of today’s international circus, film, and theater job market.”  MORE HERE

  1. There are obviously enough clowns coming out of San Francisco, just look at congress. It would be interesting to see if how many politicians have graduated with honors from this institution. Maxine Waters and nasty belagosi must have PhD’s. Go ahead and endow them with ten K, it’s worth it just for the laughs.

  2. Graduating from that school sure helped Piglosi to make a lot of money! What a great credential for a congressman-“graduated magna cum laude from clown school”!

  3. Clearly those who graduate from this institution will not have a salary high enough to repay student loans, so let’s simply subsidize the entire situaton, making it easier for these clowns in the long run.
