About the event

The Lindy Hop Sessions: Ragtime to Lindy Hop
Step into interactive galleries and move through the rhythm of dance and music in a guided exploration through the roots of the Lindy Hop led by Derrick León Washington, curator of Urban Stomp: Dreams & Defiance on the Dance Floor. Learn about the roots of the dance styles that swept the early 20th century, from Animal Dances like the Grizzly Bear and Foxtrot to the Charleston and the Lindy Hop, which continue to inspire dancers around the world today. Dance your way through shifting jazz tempos, partner holds, and into full swing-outs. Each tour ends on the “All Dancing Allowed” floor—where you’re invited to try the Lindy Hop and other social dances. No experience needed—just bring your curiosity (and maybe your dancing shoes).
