Contra Dance

Get ready to kick off the July 4th weekend and kick up your heels at the library! Join us on Thursday, July 2 from 6-8 pm for a lively evening of Contra Dancing—a fun, high-energy social dance that’s been bringing communities together for generations. No experience? No problem! Contra dance is easy to learn and all about moving in lines with a partner (and your neighbors!) to the rhythm of upbeat folk music. We’ll have a live band setting the pace and a friendly dance caller who will guide you through every step, so you can jump right in and enjoy the fun. Expect plenty of laughter, great music, and a welcoming atmosphere where everyone is invited to participate. Come solo, with a partner, your family (kids welcome!) or bring a group of friends—just be ready to move, mingle, and have a great time. Comfortable shoes recommended! Free and open to all ages. Register below so we know how many people are coming! Sponsored by The Friends of the Barrington Public Library and the Barrington 250 Committee.
