Aug 22 Friday
Join us Friday, August 22nd for a fun community contra dance! Tallahassee’s delightful Drew Thomas will be calling dances to the live tunes of The Little Mercies.
Tallahassee community contra dances continue in the Senior Center Ballroom! Contra dancing is an upbeat, beginner-friendly American folk dance for all ages. It shares many moves with square dancing (such as swing your partner and do-si-do) and is danced in long lines to live music. The bands and callers vary each night. Come alone or bring friends–no partner or experience required! Those new to contra dancing are strongly encouraged to come by 7:15 when a Beginner Lesson will be taught, and as dances are taught in more detail early in the evening. Wear comfortable clothes and flat shoes.
