Contra dancing is a type of folk dancing made up of long lines of couples, with some dance moves similar to square dancing. This is a social dance and you are welcome to come with or without a partner.
The first dances of the evening start with instructions for beginners, so it's useful to arrive early if you are a beginner. Later dances, especially after the intermission, might become more complex.
There is an admission fee:
Adults - sliding scale / choose your price: $10 to $25

Youth 12-17 $5
Children under 12 supervised by parent FREE
