Due to downtown construction, there will be no Street Dance in 2020. The Street Dance will be back in 2021!
Street Dance
Saturday Evening 7:00-9:00
Since 1984, our capstone event has been the Street Dance, featuring big-band selections by the always-popular Vermont Jazz Ensemble.

Come early and learn some dance steps from Jim Condon!
Main street will be closed from Merchants Row to the post office for the dance.
