Dances

DANCES

Dances are a part of the Folk Festival's January schedule. Most of these dances feature our guest artists. Low cost admission provides a fun way to actively participate in the community, while helping support the Anchorage Folk Festival's fund-raising efforts.

A THANK YOU to the Dancing Bears for their continuing partnership in the Festival dances.

Families are welcome and encouraged to come to the Contra/Square dances.

Children must be directly supervised by their parent.
