Join us for a night of contradance! The popular Catherine Sloboda joins with her parents, Nancy and Jim, to bring us the delightful harmonies of twin fiddles and accordion.

Our caller is Bob Nicholson. His engaging style gets everyone up to dance and having fun.

Experience the magic of contradancing, where all are welcome, and no partner or experience is necessary. Bring your friends, family, and fellow dance enthusiasts for a night of lively music, connection, and community.

We have a sliding scale admission policy, with a target of $12. Pay more if you can, less if you can’t – come dance!
