From the Executive Director…

Are you finding yourself with a little more time on your hands (and feet) than you are used to?

Are you suffering from dance withdrawal symptoms?

Are you wondering how to support nonprofit arts groups like the Folk Arts Center of New England, groups who have had to cancel their programming and, in the process, eliminated a critical income stream to support the organization?

Have we got an opportunity for you!

Ahmet Lüleci is donating a Turkish Dance Workshop – to be conducted in the comfort of your own home!

On Saturday afternoon, March 28, from 11am – 1pm PDT (2-4pm EDT), Ahmet will appear live via Zoom and regale us with two classes (with a short break in between). The suggested donation is $10, but of course anything above that would be gratefully accepted and most appreciated.

On the Folk Art Center’s Special Events webpage, there are details about what to do to in preparation for Saturday’s workshop: how to make your donation, and how to install Zoom on the device of your choice.

All proceeds – all of them! – benefit the

Sherry Cochran of lifebalkandancers.com is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Sherry ran a test session on Zoom last night and will start running a weekly session of Friday Night L.I.F.E. starting this Friday. They are sharing the evening with Kypseli Greek dancing, as both of their sessions run regularly on Fridays. Friday Night L.I.F.E. will run from 8-9:15 pm and Kypseli will start at 9:30 pm. They might add Facebook Live down the road.

The dancing and music, along with chatting with friends, is very therapeutic.

Topic: Friday Night L.I.F.E.

Time: Mar 27, 2020 08:00 PM Pacific Time (US and Canada)
