A contra dance is a form of folk dancing with a caller who teaches the moves—no experience required! North House Folk School's Red Building converts into a traditional community contra dance on Friday night, welcoming families for the first hour to learn traditional dances geared towards families with children. Local band Over the Waterfall will be delighting the room, with Lisa Leedham calling. All are welcome for the following two hours for the community dance.
The Summer Solstice Poetry Slam is a celebration of writing and the vibrance of summer in the North. Join in the fun at 8pm by reading one of your own works or any selected seasonal poetry of your choosing.
6-7pm: Family Contra Dance
7-9pm: Community Contra Dance
8-9pm: Summer Solstice Poetry Slam
