Community Contra Dance
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass — On Saturday, Feb. 14, North Berkshire Community Dance will hold its monthly contra dance with calling (teaching) by Steve Howland, and live music by Seamus Connor, Alex Moon and friends.
According to a press release:
Contra dancing is a living New England folk tradition. The music is live, the dances are taught, and anyone is welcome, with or without a partner — it is common to change partners for each dance of the evening. The caller teaches dance moves and skills as needed so that newcomers can participate fully from their very first event.
The dance will run from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m. in the Community Hall of the First Congregational Church, 906 Main St., Williamstown. Admission is pay-as-you-can, $12 to $20 suggested, and barter is also welcome. An introductory lesson will be held at 7:15PM. For more information, visit www.NorthBerkshireDance.org.
