• Dance series featuring lively community dances and wonderful live music.
• Occasional and seasonal special events, ranging from formal balls to workshops for dancers, musicians, dance leaders, and sound technicians.
• Performance teams that bring lively and raucous English folk traditions to the streets, classrooms, farmers' markets, and festivals.
