To work with a circus you pretty much have to travel with them full time. You can be a shriner and clown with the local groups when the circus comes to town. There are some shriners on here who can tell you more about that. But with most shows, if you are part of the show they need you at each performance.
If you are creative you can creat a show for schools or libraries that would not feel like a birthday party. And you can partner with someone if you do not want to work alone. But you will have to write,produce, and book the show yourself. This is no small task.
You might enjoy working with a clown alley (clown club) if there is one in your area. Then you would be with other clowns and alley tend to perform at non-profit events. That might have the feeling you are looking for. The support of other clowns would be good if you arre new to this.
