07/05/2024 07:30 PM 07/05/2024 11:00 PM America/Anguilla Contra Dance at Glen Echo with Larry Unger, Elke Baker, Ralph Gordon, and Ron Buchanan calling! The contra at Glen Echo puts a modern spin on a New England traditional dance that dates back over 150 years. It's easy to learn. It involves some spinning around, so shoes with a smooth sole are best, and best not to drink alcohol beforehand. Caller: Ron Buchanan Band: Larry Unger (guitar, banjo, jaw harp), Elke Baker (fiddle), and Ralph Gordon (bass) We dance in a beautiful Art Deco 1920s ballroom-- the Spanish Ballroom at Glen Echo Park, always to live music. Come try it!Event LinksTickets: https://go.evvnt.com/2459444-0Website: https://go.evvnt.com/2459444-2Facebook: https://go.evvnt.com/2459444-3Instagram: https://go.evvnt.com/2459444-4YouTube: https://go.evvnt.com/2459444-5Virtual:...
