Scottish Country Dancing (ages 13+)
Time : 6:30 P.M. - 8:45 P.M.
Place : Charleston heights Arts Center

Cosponsored by Southern Nevada Old-Time Contra Dancers, the National Folk Organization, and the city of Las Vegas. Classes begins promptly at 6:30 p.m. and run until 8:45 p.m. This class is recommended for ages 13 and up. It is not suitable for younger children unless they have previous dance experience. Scottish Country Dancing is the beautiful ?ballroom? dance of Scotland. The dances may be lively and joyful or gentle and graceful. From the first chord to the final bow or curtsey, dancers are inspired by the driving reels, jaunty jigs, snappy strathspeys or lilting slow airs. And thanks to the Royal Scottish Country Dance Society, any dancer can be welcomed by a local group almost anywhere in the world.

Fridays, March 5, 19 and 26

Cost: $5 general admission, $4 for Southern Nevada Old-Time Contra Dancers members.
