Come discover what was described on NPR as “swirly awesomeness!” Contra dancing is recreational, non-competiton dancing, always to live music in the styles of Irish, old-time, swing, gypsy, and newly composed music. Contra dancing is about community, making friends and dancing to diverse music. You don’t even need to bring a partner – part of the tradition is switching partners each time, and dance with both them and everyone else. A caller teaches each dance, so no lessons are needed; just show up and have fun!
$7 general public, $4 age 25 & under. Plus $1 if the band or caller travel from more than an hour away
