Dancing to a Different Beat - May 17th

Cajun rhythms – what a joy! If you enjoy dancing and haven’t yet tried Cajun, you’re in for great fun with the Cajun waltz and two-step. Not a dancer? Cajun dancing is easy, even for beginners. For more experienced dancers, the two-step has lots of chances for jitterbug moves but with simpler footwork. How can you pursue this fun?

The Cajun French Music folks have set up three Saturday dances: March 29th, April 19th, and May 17th, each with live music. Dances run from 9 to 11 pm, with dance instruction during the band break. (Non-dancers can listen and munch from their bake sale, and perhaps be teased into the instruction). $10. Dances are at the Portage Park Center for the Arts, 5801 W. Dakin St. (Former Nebo Lutheran Church, corner of Dakin and Menard, 1 block South of Irving Park, 2 blocks west of Central; entrance on Menard towards rear).
