Admission is by sliding scale, $3-10 or however much you want to pay, no one turned away.

There's a great hall for dancing upstairs, so join us for a monthly square dance on the third Sunday of each month! There’s lots of corners and room downstairs for jamming! So bring your instruments if you want to hang out and play tunes, or take a break from dancing. All the dances will be taught first, then called. We welcome beginners, and more experienced folks. The point is just to dance and laugh!
