ASTORIA — Community
contra dancing is back.
Inspired by the crowd at a
recent contra dance at the
Netel Grange, Dave Am-
brose has organized what he
hopes to be a monthly contra
dance in downtown Astoria.
The kick-off dance will
be Friday, Jan. 13 at Astoria
Arts & Movement Center,
located at 342 10th St. The
dance will feature live music
by local musicians and Am-
brose as dance caller.
The dance will start at 7
p.m. with a beginner’s les-
son for those new to contra
or folk dancing, and the
event will run until 10 p.m.
All ages are welcome.
Bringing a dance partner
is not necessary as contra
dancers are encouraged to
dance with as many partners
as they are comfortable with.
The entrance fee is a slid-
ing scale of $5 to $10. You
can give more to support the
musicians, caller and hall.
If all goes well, there will
be a regular monthly dance
every second Friday of the
month. For more informa-
tion, call Ambrose at 503-
741-8412
