FAC's free outdoor summer folk dances in the Boston area offer basic instruction and dancing for all, sometimes accompanied by live music. It is not necessary to have previous dance experience or to attend with a partner. For more information, see What is folk dancing.
FAC's FolkFone at 781-438-4389 provides a recorded announcement with information about current Boston-area folk dance events. For the final word on cancellation of an outdoor dance because of predicted bad weather or other unforeseen reasons, call the FolkFone after 5 pm that day for the Copley Square dance, or check our homepage or our Facebook page.
