Salida Community Contra Dances
AVMAD is committed to offering contra dances in Salida.
What is community dancing?

Come one, Come all! These fun gatherings always include live music and calling that is sure to make you feel welcome and get your feet stomping. All dances are taught and called, so no experience is necessary. Also, since we often change partners during or after a dance, you can come alone or with a big group.

Held four to five times a year, usually at the Salida Scout Hut in Riverside Park usually from 7:30pm - 10pm (see dates and times on the calendar). Bring your kids at the beginning for easier dances especially for families! Slightly harder dances after the break.  Bring a yummy treat for the dessert potluck. Cost: $7 (Members: $5), Youth half-price. Dances are co-sponsored by Salida Recreation.

See calendar for the most current dates.

2nd Fridays, September - May.  7-9 PM.  $4/adult, $2/youth. Call 719-395-6704 or check out our calendar to confirm location and date.
