Family Contra Dance
Another Motherhouse event providing place, support, and time for mothers by promoting thriving families and vibrant communities.
Each Family Dance is taught and led by a “caller,” who explains how the dance flows and helps the dancers “walk through” the dance before the music starts. S/he continues “calling” instructions throughout the dance. Dancers of all ages and levels of ability are welcome to join in this everybody-wins team sport.
Dances run from 7:00 until 10:00 and are held at the Cornwall, CT Town Hall at 24 Pine Street. Music generously donated by Still, the Homegrown Band. Suggested donation to help pay the caller: $3/child and $5/adult. Call Jim or Jane Prentice 860-672-6101 for more info.
