The People Danced: Ballroom

The Gloucester Cultural Initiative, in partnership with Gloucester 400+, invites you to join us for a night exploring Gloucester’s dance history. In this episode of “The People Danced” we focus on ballroom dance, as well as the regional dances from the Azores and Sicily. The evening will include a ballroom dance demonstration and a dance lesson from Tina LaFlam and her students, plus stories and dance demos from the members of Gloucester’s St. Peter’s Club and the D.E.S. Portuguese Club.
This event is FREE to the public! Refreshments will be served.
MAGMA can be accessed via the stairs at 11 Pleasants Street, or by elevator in Brown’s Mall, entrance at 186 Main Street or door between MAGMA front door and Breakwater Poke.
This event is funded in part by the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
