About the event

Join us for a lively afternoon of music and movement.

Learn traditional American social dances, including contra dances from New England, square dances from the Southern Appalachians, and reels with roots in Ireland and Scotland. 

Gibson teaches gender-free dances (traditionally, participants had either a 'lady' or 'gent' role), ensuring that all are welcome. 

The event is open to first-time dancers of all ages.
