Details
It's time to celebrate Halloween at our annual Spooky Spectacular Dance and costume contest featuring live music from Stomp Off Party!
Stomp Off Party will be bringing the house down tonight at Thursday Swing! Bringing together talent from all across the Willamette Valley jazz community (and beyond), the band will be swinging with vibrance and depth all night long. A collaboration that is polyphonic and multigenerational, Stomp Off Party dives into the American songbook to deliver riffs and rhythms tuned expressly for dancing. A night with this band is always lively, always swinging, and always exceptional.
Our Foundations Lesson is an hour-long beginner lesson from 6:45PM-7:45PM (and is included with the dance cover!). The lesson is great for folks who are new to dancing, curious about dancing, or just love dancing! Topics will lean more towards Lindy Hop or Charleston depending on the band playing each Thursday night.
Swing Foundations Lesson (Included w/Purchase of Dance)
Dance $15 | All Ages
