Dance Friday [dancefriday.org]
is a place to dance barefoot, however you like, with or without a partner, in a substance-free space. All ages are welcome; children must be accompanied by a supervising adult. Dance Friday is held every Friday at 1615 Beacon Street, Brookline MA. We ask a suggested donation of $8-12, but larger contributions are welcome. We are a volunteer-run, consensus-governed, non-profit dance organization.
