pimping a historical dance event

[rm]

I can't go to this, but if you're in the area, you should really think about it -- outrageously fun, very affordable, costume not required but encouraged:

Space still remains for The Elegant Arts Society's 1905 Centennial
Dance Weekend May 7-8 in New Haven, Connecticut! We have some space
left for Saturday's ball and workshops and a very few spaces left for
the full weekend including Sunday's trolley ride and picnic.

Saturday afternoon join us for a series of dance workshops on the dances
of one hundred years ago and a formal ball Saturday evening with live music
by The Flying Romanos and scrumptious refreshments. Sunday, visit
the Shore Line Trolley Museum for a trolley ride and picnic. Period
costume encouraged and admired but not required! A photographer will be
on hand both days for those wishing to sit for portraits in costume.

Advance registration rates ($40 full weekend/$35 ball and
workshops/$25 ball only) will remain good through May 6! Special
student rates for those under 21 are also available. Children under
13 are welcome at no charge in the company of their parents.

More information may be had by emailing Irene at ct@elegantarts.org or

Happy dancing!
