Friday, August 26th: Leah's Birthday Dance - A Tribute to Leah Morgan Durrett.
This will be a loving, light-hearted evening, in the spirit of someone who had infectious curiosity about all kinds of music and cultures. Leah was the type of person to perk up at the sound of a band playing and jump right into the line to figure out the dance. Music by: Don Weeda, Corinne Zappler, Genevieve Kent, and Phara Charmchi. So put on your fanciest wig, stripey-est socks, and your most extravagant hat, and in the spirit of Leah, dance your heart out! Full details here.
