The museum will be open daily to the public through Sept. 8, 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. The Circus World promises many new features this season. The colossal Ringling Bell Wagon, which has been restored this year by the museum's wagon restoration crew, will make its concert debut after 35 years of silence. The historic, 6-ton wagon, on loan from the Ringling Bros, and Barnum & Bailey Circus, will be featured in daily concerts on the museum grounds and will appear in the Great Milwaukee Circus Parade on July 14. The vehicle's nine mammoth bells play when levers are pulled. - On June 1, Theatre of Illusion will open on the museum grounds. This magical stage show extravaganza will highlight the magic art employed by such great conjurors as Thurston and Houdini in cir­ cuses of yesteryear. A new Wheelwright Shop display, depicting the working shop of the craft­ smen who made ornate circus wagon wheels, has been added to the museum's fine collection of historic exhibits. The Big Top will be the site of many new exciting circus acts. The Ayala fami­ ly will demonstrate such death-defying feats as Miguel's tight-wire walk and Michelle's hair suspension routine from the dome of the 40-foot-high tent. The Cir­ cus World Museum will also host some of the world's finest animal acts, including William Woodcock's highly skilled elephants and Trudy Strong's Appaloosa horses and dalmatians trained to per­ form at liberty. Happy the Clown will delight both the young and the old with his clown capers. The Great Milwaukee Circus Parade will be staged and produced by the Circus World Museum on July 14. This horse- drawn spectacle will wind its way through the streets of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and,will feature 120 entries, including more than 60 of the museum's unparalleled collection of circus parade wagons. The wagons will be transported from the museum to Milwaukee by train. The Great Circus Parade lakefront grounds will be active July 11-13 with eight performances of the Carson & Barnes Circus, exotic animal displays, the Anheuser-Busch Clydesdale team and circus wagon exhibits. From resounding peals to magical moments to colorful parade extravagan­ zas, the Circus World Museum brings cir­ cus history to life.

"We invite everyone to run away with the circus for a day at the Circus World Museum."
