Contra dancing is a form of American folk dance done in long lines of partners with caller-directed figures and live acoustic music, and this Friday or Sunday event at Glen Echo includes a free 30-minute beginner session at the start of the evening that teaches all the figures needed to participate fully in the dance. The main dance follows immediately and the caller continues to walk through each figure as they call it, meaning newcomers are guided throughout the entire evening. No partner required and all ages welcome.
