{USC} Square Dance with a LIVE BAND!

Let's go square dancing Downtown near USC! ($20)

The 16th ever Los Angeles Old Time Social is happening on May 16th.

There are beginner-friendly workshops throughout the day and musicians and folk enthusiasts from up and down the west coast come into town that weekend.

Some of them will be putting on a square dance from 7:30-10pm, which is what we'll be attending.

Different musicians and callers will be rotating in throughout the night, and we'll keep dancing.

Never square danced? Don't worry... all dances are taught. Fun guaranteed!

No partner necessary, this is social dancing :) Everyone willing to participate is welcome!

Bring your friends -- the more the square-ier!

Straight and LGBTQIA+ friendly.

We'll meet up there at 7:30pm to watch (and eat) musical cakes before the dancing gets underway.
