Bubble artist Keith Michael Johnson will entrance youngsters with bubbles that seem to defy the law of gravity when he appears on Saturday, Feb. 6, at 10:30 a.m. in the Brenner Friends Room.
Bubbles are fun to make, but there are reasons why they seem to behave magically. In a program geared to children in grades K-6 and up, the science behind the magic unfolds like a mystery. The audience learns why water won’t make bubbles on its own and where rainbow colors come from.
Johnson notes that for good, clean fun, nothing beats a soap bubble the size of your car. His eye-pleasing tricks include creating bubbles with his bare hands and building a tower of bubbles on top of an inverted glass.
A graduate of Ringling Brothers Clown College and a professional performer for elementary audiences, Johnson uses science and art to help children use their imaginations and creativity to explore and understand the world around them.
The program is appropriate for elementary youngsters and the young-at-heart of all ages. In case of severe weather, the snow date for the event will be Sunday, Feb. 7, at 2 p.m. This event is funded by the Friends of the Rockport Public Library.
Good Morning Gloucester 
“A graduate of Ringling Brothers Clown College”
If I asked to see his diploma would he honk my nose?
FunFact: Steve-O of Jackass the Movie fame is also a graduate. Maybe I’ll bring my red Swingline Stapler …

Paul asks about my Ringling Bros Clown College Diploma… I’ll have you know it’s a BFA (Bachelor of Fun Arts) from a prestigious academy! Our Class of ’83 had over six and a half thousand applicants. About sixty five were accepted. About forty graduated.
And no. I wouldn’t honk your nose.
Surprising though, you have a nose that honks when squeezed and didn’t go the circus route?
I must have been lucky to be allowed in with simply a standard issue non-honking human type nose.
Did you photoshop your honker out of the picture above?
The world is a mysterious place & full of surprises. Thank goodness.
Keith
