Dirty Water Lindy (Light): Swingin’ at Piers Park

We’re bringing back a little sliver of the Dirty Water Lindy Exchange.Β  We haven’t ran a full blown exchange since 2019, and we’re so busy running Friday dances and Roaring Twenties Lawn Party, but we decided to try and be ambitious and bring back this little gem of a dance.Β  Fingers crossed for some good weather.Β  If it looks like rain, we will reschedule this….you can get a t-shirt, or help fund this dance which costs around $300 to use this beautiful park (see link below).Β  Donations are appreciated but not required.Β  This dance is free and open to the public.

Swingin’ at Piers Park. With one of the best views of downtown, this East Boston park is a hidden jewel. We’ve danced here before and it’s really awesome. Since we’re right on the water, and it is the ocean, it can be a little windy and get a little chilly, so bring a jacket, dress in layers…

3:00pm – 3:30pm Quickie Beginner Lesson

3:30-6pm Open Dancing
