About This Webinar

Learn more about The Creative Circus. At this session, the Admissions team will give the lowdown on what portfolio school is & then open the floor to answer all your questions!

About The Creative Circus:
The Creative Circus is unlike any school you've experienced before. More a subset of the communications arts industry than academia, The Creative Circus has prepared some of the world's best working creative talent. Founded in 1995 in Atlanta, Georgia, The Creative Circus is an accredited, two-year, portfolio-building, educational program for the creative side of the Advertising, Graphic Design, Creative Technology and Content Creation. Located in an energetic, converted warehouse that feels more like an agency, design firm or studio than a traditional school, future creatives build portfolios that help them land the best jobs in the field.

Event Details:
January 12th, 2021
Time: 11 AM EST

The event is free and open to all prospective students & their parents.

Presenters

Jaye Liptak

Admissions Representative

Jaye Liptak is an Atlanta native who graduated from The
George Washington University with a degree in Broadcasting
and Creative Writing. She loves working in the Admissions
Department at The Creative Circus, surrounded by artists,
writers, and designers and helping prospective students figure
out their creative goals.

For the last twenty years she has been a voice-over artist,
writer, and recently has started performing stand-up comedy
at shows around Atlanta. She is an unabashed grammar nerd,
cake baker, plant lover, and belly rubber to all furry animals.

Last summer she swam with a school of great white sharks just
north of Cuba. And by that, she means that she snorkeled above
one medium-sized reef shark off the stern of a snorkeling party
boat near Key West. But still, it was a real, very medium-sized
shark. And he looked hungry. They made eye contact and time
stopped. They had an understanding about the ocean, the
universe, and various ways to prepare seaweed salad.

Carolann Robinson

Director of Admissions

Carolann is the Director of Admissions for The Creative Circus where she loves helping prospective and current students find their best path to embark on their creative careers. She appreciates all forms of Art and greatly enjoys being around creative students here at the school.

She was formerly the Director of Enrollment for the Paul Mitchell School in Atlanta and is thrilled to be at The Circus. She has a background in Fine Arts and was one of the founders of the Arts & Learning Center at The University of Maryland, where she headed up the Textile Design program. After graduating, she worked for many years in the Fashion Industry as a professional runway model in addition to shooting many catalogs, videos, television commercials and magazine ads.

In addition to being the proud Mom of two amazing humans and to Romeo, the world’s most regal dog, she enjoys cooking, gardening, live music and festivals. When she’s not running the Admissions Department, she can be found biking and cross-country skiing thanks to her New England upbringing.

A lover of both Birkenstocks and high heels, she’ll have to say high heels rule, but above all, she’ll guide you through the admissions process at The Creative Circus and help you discover the amazing opportunities that await you!
