40s/50s English Country Dancing

October 20, 2024 @ 3:15 pm - 5:45 pm

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 20, 3:15–5:45 P.M., at University Heights Center, NE 50th St. & Brooklyn Ave NE

Hosted by 40s/50s Group; all are welcome.

Join the 40s/50s group for an afternoon of English Country Dancing. Back in the 1600s and 1700s, English country folk dancing emerged as a popular way to mingle with your neighbors, enjoy live music, and dance away the late evening hours. Here in Seattle, dances are welcoming to all levels, with musicians playing lively and lyrical music. Anyone can learn to dance, and all dances are called by a dance leader (similar to square dancing). No need to bring a partner! If you can line-dance, you can English dance! More information here and here. Join in on Sunday, October 20, 3:15–5:45 p.m., at University Heights Center, NE 50th St. & Brooklyn Ave NE, with an optional meal out nearby afterward. The #49 bus goes directly from the cathedral to the venue—meet at the bus stop in front of the cathedral at 2:30 to travel together. If you’re interested in carpooling, or any any questions, please contact Theresa Barker: theresabarker@comcast.net
