[Williams Ballroom] Fwd: New dance, new dancers, new year

[Levy, Emma]

Hi all,

Just wanted to let you all know about a really exciting event
happening *tomorrow
night* here in Williamstown! North Berkshire Dance is holding a
*contradance* at the *Williamstown preschool* (at the intersection of Route
2 and Water St) from *7:30-10:30pm*. Contradancing is really easy and fun
to learn, so don’t worry if you’ve never done it before — it’s very
beginner-friendly! There will be live music, a live caller, and a potluck
with snacks. Bring friends and come when you can!

Please reach out if you have any questions about the event, and check out
the email below for more information. We hope to see you there!

Best,
Emma and Lily

New moves and new music ...
>From an Irish reel, you may hear the fiddle veer cheerfully into
ragtime or *Five
Foot Two, Eyes of Blue. *On Saturday, *January 11,*  Paul Rosenberg will
lead our first dance of the new year from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m. at the
Williamstown Community Preschool.

If you love dancing and want to share the joy with friends and family, this
one is a good place to start. Paul loves helping newcomers discover
dancing. He is one of the founders of the Dance Flurry in Saratoga Springs,
N.Y., and has called at festivals throughout the Northeast, but he says he
was afraid of dancing until he found contra in his 30s. He has many years'
experience getting people on their feet and making things fun from the
start, without long walkthroughs. He will open with gentler dances
and build towards high energy dances as the evening goes on.

Three North Adams musicians known across New England will perform  live —
Eric Buddington on fiddle and Tony Pisano on accordion, both members of the
band Coincidance, will join Todd Reynolds, violinist for Steve Reich,
Meredith Monk and Bang on a Can. They'll perform traditional and original
music and spice our New England hornpipes with other flavors, including
popular tunes from the 1920s and 1930s.

Contra dancing has friendliness built in — everyone dances with everyone
else. You can bring a partner or come alone and join in.

NBCD will also hold a snack potluck halfway through the dance, and everyone
is welcome. (The school is a no-nuts zone, but dancers may bring cookies,
cheese and crackers, apples, popcorn …)

Dances are second Saturdays monthly. Admission is $12, or $5 for students
and $25 for families. For more information, please visit us at*
