Think BINGO… but hotter. We’re swapping boring numbers for bangers, adding drinks, and turning game night into a mini party. Join us for Music BINGO, where you’ll mark off songs instead of numbers, belt out throwbacks you forgot you loved, and compete for prizes while sipping your favorite drink. Expect guilty pleasures, sing-along classics, and that song that makes everyone lose their dignity (in the best way). Come solo, bring friends, flirt with strangers — we don’t judge. ✨ Fun beats 🍺 Flowing drinks 😊 Happy Hour prices until 8:00 🎵 Shameless singing 🏆 Prizes worth yelling “BINGO!” for Low pressure. High vibes. Slightly inappropriate dancing encouraged. Grab a glass, grab a card, and let’s see who’s got the best ears (and worst dance moves). THIS EVENT IS STILL HAPPENING REGARDLESS OF WEATHER. SO PLEASE COME OUT FOR A FUN NIGHT!!! 🤩🤩🤩🎆🎆🎆

Anita Thomas has put together what you could properly term “the dream team” of a band - grab your tickets now for a pot of gold show! Anita Thomas has had great fortune bestowed upon her. Having lived in Australia and California and now Maryland she has had the opportunity to meet and play with stellar jazz musicians from around the globe. For this PRJC performance she is presenting not only some of our fabulous local jazz musicians but also one you may not have yet heard in person. Anita is bringing in NYC trumpeter Danny Tobias, in demand throughout the NYS area and (literally) ships at sea, a veteran of jazz cruises. Joining Danny are local standouts Scott Silbert on reeds, David Sager on trombone, Craig Gildner on piano. Joining Anita from her roost in Hagerstown will be Chuck Ferrell on drums, while versatile Anita herself will be handling string bass AND bass saxophone chores. This band is going to be exciting and hot but also sweet and tender. It promises to be an event to remember - and it may bring the luck of the Irish to ya.

We host our concerts at Rosensteel Hall as it has ample parking, is a few blocks from the metro (red line, Forest Glen), has plenty of seating and dance floor space, and a nicely priced cash bar.

Dance with us in the afternoon then you can still go out in the evening! **Sponsor: All Soles Contra and Square Dancing, First Unitarian Universalist Church, 93 W. Weisheimer Rd., Columbus OH 43214** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 1:30 - 2:00, followed by dancing 2:00 - 430. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner.
