Having danced in communities across the country and even abroad (and having been a performer and…read moreorganizer in several such communities), I can't recommend PICD highly enough. There is no other dance community, so far as I'm aware, which is more welcoming to newcomers, more appreciative of the music and performers on stage, more aware of how to be as inclusive as possible to as many people as possible, or more filled with a smiling, laughing, intergenerational group of wonder humans dancing together. PICD simply checks all the boxes. Seriously, whether you've been dancing for 30 years or you've never tried contra before and are simply curious, an evening spent at the Portland Intown Contra Dance will not be an evening wasted. Go enjoy!

I go to this dance often and it's amazing what a soul-cleansing fun experience it is! There is…read morealways a live band and that adds to the fun energy quite a bit (and is a great way to learn about regional artists!). My experience has been that everyone is really friendly and it's a very safe space. I used to take a date but now I just go by myself and it's never a problem finding someone to dance with (or if you are feeling shy for the moment that is OK too). This is one of those activities that if you don't know what it is, you might not have any idea how fun it is and how easy it is to get started. They have a tutorial that starts at 7 to show you the ropes but you don't even need to go to that if you can't make it by 7 -- before each dance you get a run-down of how it will go. It can be fun figuring it out as you go! I've noticed the beaming smiles on people's faces as they start to dance for the first time. I don't even think they realize they are smiling. Check it out!
