2013 World Juggling Day was one of the most widely celebrated WJDs in history. With thousands of celebrants in over 55 countries, a partnership to bring WJD celebrations into Ripley’s Believe It or Not museums around the world, an “I <3 IJA” photo contest, and now, a fabulous documentary video, the 2013 WJD had a unifying and inspirational impact on the global juggling scene.
This video was edited by Taylor Glenn. A big thank you to her for the countless hours of work dedicated to this project.
Thank you, as well, to everyone who joined the celebrations and submitted videos! Due to technical difficulties, not all video submissions made it into the final video. It is, none-the-less, a fabulous representation of the celebrations that took place.
Preparations for the 2014 WJD on June 14th, are underway. Stay tuned for an upcoming eJuggle article with all the details, and join the Facebook Event Page!
