MN Folk Arts Alliance

We're half way to St. Patrick's Day and the Minnesota Folk Arts Alliance is sponsoring a fundraiser Irish Ceili Dance taking place this Saturday, September 15.

This dance will take place at a different venue for us, a renovated building called the Klub Haus located at 1079 Rice Street, St. Paul. It has a great wooden dance floor perfect for a dance and we're excited to try out this new location. It will also has a cash bar available.

Basics will be taught at 7:45 and the dance will begin at 8. Tim McAndrew will teach, Barra (barraband.com) will provide the music, and Loma Mor will also perform a couple of dances throughout the evening for our viewing pleasure.

Tickets for the fundraiser are $9 for adults and half price for children 5 to 16 and seniors 62+. Children under 5 are free.

If you have not been to a ceili, they are great fun, you need no experience, all dances are taught, and beginners are welcome. Bring the whole family and friends for a fun night out.

Please help us get the word out about this upcoming event by sharing our information with your friends, and we look forward to seeing you at the Half Way to St. Patrick's Day Irish Ceili Dance on September 15!
