2nd Sunday Scandinavian Dancing at Tapestry

Join the fun! The glorious dance and music of the Scandinavian countries are celebrated each 2nd Sunday of the month. Dances cost $5. Dance the whole range of Scandinavian dances including the vals, polka, schottis, hambo, snoa, mazurka, polska, springar, and more. The music is awesomely beautiful and the dances are both wonderful and accessible. Beginning lessons will enable all levels of dancers access to this beautiful and fun dance form. 

This event is being offered by Tapestry as a celebration of the music and dance traditions of the Scandinavian/Nordic countries. In order to make this event affordable and sustainable for the indefinite future Tapestry (a non-profit organization) will try to minimize its expenses by using recorded music and soliciting volunteer teachers. Any musicians desiring the opportunity to play for dancers should request playing time by contacting Chris, Tapestry's Scandinavian Dance Coordinator, at . Any dance teachers willing to donate their services are invited to do the same. Hopefully a collaborative effort will arise to keep the outstanding dance and music traditions of Scandinavia vibrant in the Twin Cities.

In the spirit of reviving the venerable Good Templar Scandinavian Dance event of years past we will provide exceptional music for a wide variety of dances. The dance evening will include both easy dances and more difficult dances and will be adapted to meet the dance wishes of the attending dancers. No one will be left out!

Time: 6:00pm to 9:00pm
