Square Dance Calling Workshop with Phil Jamison

  • 07 Dec 2013
  • 3:00 PM - 5:00 PM
  • Hillyer Art Space, Washington, DC
Have you ever wanted to try calling a square dance? Or do you just want to know more about where the dances come from? The DC Square Dance Collective is thrilled to present a workshop with nationally known traditional square dance caller Phil Jamison.


This workshop is open to callers of all levels of experience, as well as dancers who want to know more about the southern Appalachian square dance tradition. We will learn about and dance four-couple squares as well as southern big circle dances. Participants will have the opportunity to try their hand (or voice) at calling out the dance figures. Live musicians will provide the music. No prior experience is necessary.


Spots are limited. Email dcsquaredance@gmail.com or call Gabe at 859-619-4769 to register. Cost: $20 (includes admission to the evening dance at Saint Stephen's church)


Location: Hillyer Art Space, 9 Hillyer Court NW DC
