Tuxedo Jimmy is a Festival Favorite!

We use Tuxedo Jimmy and Apron Annie for our large Oregon Convention Center festivals, as well as smaller events that include families. Tuxedo Jimmy and Apron Annie are always one of our more popular booths and never fail to leave the kids at our events smiling from ear-to-ear! If you have an event, and need to bring in professional, talented, friendly entertainers, you would do well to hire Tuxedo Jimmy and Apron Annie!

I’m Jimmy, Portland’s local Balloon Twister.

I’m Tuxedo Jimmy, Portland’s local Balloon Twister! I sculpt balloons, juggle, perform magic, and tell jokes on my unicycle. Portland, Beaverton, Tigard, Gresham, Hillsboro, and Vancouver, WA: If you haven’t met me yet, schedule me for your next party today! The people have spoken: I’m “a complete hit,” “amazing,” and make “the best child’s party . . . ever.”

What I do on my spare time…

I live in my hometown, Portland, OR, with my wife, business manager, and creative partner, Chandra. When not attending industry conventions and seminars, I am in school, studying American Sign Language (ASL), and theater and stage craft.
