Dancing is a cure for those dark evening blues! Come on out to Outermost Contra Dance for some great music, dancing, and friendly folks.
Our caller this month is special guest Erica Weiss, experienced dance teacher, musician, dancer, recording artist and more. Erica will lead us through each dance with the expertise she is known for.
Erica will be calling to the great music of local Eastham musicians, Billy Hardy and Beth Sweeney on fiddle and piano. Music from the Scottish, Irish, French-Canadian, Bluegrass and Appalachian fiddle traditions will inspire you to get up and dance!
Contra dancing is the older cousin to the square dance. No fancy footwork needed – if you can walk, you can dance! All the dances are taught and called.
If you’re new to contra dance, or just want to polish your skills be sure to come at 6:30 for a “Contra Skills” workshop.
Come to dance or come just to listen. All are welcome. Admission is $15, $10 for those under 30, $5 with student ID
