Everybody (Folk) Dance!

Nov. 15, 2025

Cedar’s Green Door Folk School has an array of cool classes to explore from a “Wild Dyers Lab” on Nov. 16 to “Creating a Stitch Journal” on Nov. 22 to “Winter Care: Daily Rituals and Kitchen Herbalism for Surviving the Winter Months” on Dec. 6. But right now, we’re most excited about their Fall Barn Dance, to be held at Gilbert Lodge at Twin Lakes on Friday, Nov. 21 from 6:30-9pm. The event is geared for all levels of experience, and attendees will learn contras, squares, and line dances, with a beginners’ lesson at 6:30pm with Pat Reeser of the Bayside Travellers before the real party starts at 7pm. The Barn Dance is free, but RSVPs are requested. There’s a suggested donation of $10-$20 to support the musicians and venue that make the event possible.
