We were absolutely gonna move to the Park because of nice weather-- but there is a Park Days event at Fernhill on Sunday so we will be having our dance at BridgeSpace. There's AC!
We are really lucky to have Heather Christie and Vir Mccoy leading our journey this week! They are both super-talented musicians and songwriters, DJs and community builders! See their full bio below!
Remember Opening Circle and Dance Starts at NOON!
Warmup at 11:30
Dance entry is $15-30, sliding scale. $10+ donation in the park appreciated!
Children Dance for Free
Our dance continues to get sweeter, deeper, and more potent with each passing season! Your contributions in the park help us do things in the best ways we can, and pay those who help make it possible so that it is a generative endeavor for the community as a whole. <3
