The Clown Roundup Alley started in Rochester, MN in mid-2007. Our members are located all over Southern Minnesota. We have clowns that are members of the World Clown Association and members of the Clowns of America International.
The goal of the alley is to bring smiles and laughter to the community through the art of clowning and by teaching clowning to others.
The Alley meets twice a month, the 2nd Sunday of the month at 2pm and the 4th Monday of the month at 7pm. Locations sometimes vary. Visit our Calendar to see where we'll be for our meeting.
Feel free to stop by and say, 'Hi!,' we love to meet new friends.
