We'll again be dancing 2nd and 4th Fridays at the Milwaukee Society of Friends Meeting House, 3224 N. Gordon Place, Milwaukee. 7:30-10:00 pm, intro lesson at 7:00. $10, $5 for students. $20 for families.
Parking in onsite lot (limited to about 15 vehicles.) Do not park on Gordon Place as that is reserved for local residents with permits. Vast additional parking is in the adjacent Gaenslen Elementary School parking lot just south of the venue; enter school lot off of E. Auer Ave.
Our callers teach and call with nongendered terms. We strive to be welcoming.
Please wear clean, non-marking, soft-soled shoes. Many of us keep a separate pair to change into from street shoes.
