Hi! November 22nd is our next event. After our first dance, upon hearing our next event wouldn’t be until February 8th many of you asked “why wait so long?”
To that end, we’ve decided a low-key dance and hang before the holidays might be a thing to connect, share, and build community. And let’s be honest, we could all use
a chance to dance out our grief, disappointment, rage, and anything else you’re feeling post election. And we hope doing it in community will be supportive. Because we’re in this together.
It is a potluck, so bring food, libations to share, and a desire to dance it up! If bringing food is a dealbreaker, there will be a food pop-up at the venue.
So you’re invited!
