NEXT PEERS BALL

The next of our monthly balls will be the Gilded Age Ball on Saturday, May 6, 2023.

Join us at a spectacular late Victorian Ball at the historic Alameda Elks Lodge Ballroom and Salon. Greenwich Mean Time will play a varied program of late 19th Century dance music, ranging from Victorian rotary waltzes, Viennese waltzes, polkas, mazurka waltzes, and schottisches to quadrilles, contra dances and mixers.

Tickets are selling out rapidly, so if you want to attend we suggest you purchase soon.

Full details on the ball are available at our website at https://peersdance.org/gilded.html

Tickets may be purchased at the same link.



WEEKLY DANCE CLASS

Our weekly dance class will take place this week on Tuesday, April 25. The newcomer friendly class runs from 7 to 8, followed by a more advanced class from 8 to 9. Dance classes are held at the Alameda Elks Lodge at 2255 Santa Clara Avenue in Alameda. Classes are $10 for the full evening.

During the month of April we'll be focusing on the social dances of the late 19th Century - in preparation for our May 6 Gilded Age Ball.

LOOKING AHEAD

Our June event is the Daily Planet Swing Ball.
Information can be found at the website at https://peersdance.org/dailyplanet.html

We don't hold a ball in July, due to the combination of July 4th celebrations and vacations.


August is our annual free picnic in Lincoln Park.
