About Us
Gator Clowns of Jacksonville, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization that relies on volunteers to help promote the art of clowning. It is also a working clown alley that lifts the spirits of residents of the North Florida and South Georgia area by reaching out to charity organizations through laughter.
We receive numerous requests throughout the year and attempt to support as many events as possible. However, being all volunteers, we are always on the lookout for people who are willing to give of themselves to spread joy and laughter.
Gator Clowns of Jacksonville is the oldest, active Clown Alley in North America and has a tradition of showing that.
“Clowning is an art…
…from the heart.”
Let Gator Clowns help “Discover the Clown in you!”

EMPATHY
Clowns act as a bridge connecting HEALING and HUMOR – we offer grace and kindness when and where it’s needed the most.
QUALITY | DIGNITY
The quality of life, and the dignity in living with grace – bridging together HEALING and HUMOR, while rewarding, lands us in some of the muddiest of waters; the hardest of times. We offer a glimmer of light in a world of darkness.
DIVERSITY | EQUALITY | INCLUSION
Gator Clowns is a reflection of our community, each one of us unique in our own special ways. It is important to remember that members of our community need to be able to see themselves reflected in us. We must strive to be inclusive, offer equal opportunity to our members, our partners, and our audience.
