This special contra dance features live music, a variety of callers, great desserts, and a super supportive atmosphere. It was created to give callers, and now musicians also, a place to learn the craft of leading, or playing music for, this traditional New England dance form. Here’s a link to find out more about playing music at this event: https://berkshirestrings.com/dance

Dancers, whether you’re an experienced contra dancer or just starting out, by yourself or bringing a friend (or the whole family), it is a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Here’s a video from the January 2025 dance: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/AxKC35TNCHI

All dances are taught. We dance on second Sunday afternoons through May, 2-5PM.
