Calling all dancers, young and old(er) – experienced or not! Contra Dancing in Bar Harbor is back at the Jesup Library! On Saturday, August 24th, 7-10pm. C’mon out for some swinging in the stacks with the Big Moose Band in this classic venue. 

Don't know what a contra dance is all about? No worries.  Our caller will give lessons for each dance. You’ll learn a choreographed set of moves and you’ll be swinging your partner in no time!
Don’t have a partner to attend with?  No problem.  Anyone can attend with or without a partner. Over the course of each dance, you'll interact not just with your own partner for that dance, but with everyone else in the set. Big Moose will play lively jigs and reels and mellow waltzes on fiddle, piano, banjo, guitar, whistle, bodhran, bass, mandolin, accordion and more.

Suggested donation $10/adults.
