Romanian dance workshop with Mihai David July 18, Fermilab

Received from Mady:

Update:

We've decided to move the Mihai David Romanian workshop to Fermilab's Ramsey Auditorium to take advantage of the smoother floor and air-conditioned climate there (better a little crowded than so hot!), on Thursday, July 18, from 8 to 11 p.m. (note slightly different time as well).  In addition, our accordionist friend Don Weeda will be in town and will play for request dancing during the evening, when we take a break from workshop dances.

We’ll go back to the Barn for a SPECIAL event: Thursday, July 18:  MIHAI DAVID, the teacher of some of our favorite Romanian dances, will be at Fermilab’s Barn for a WORKSHOP!!  We’re moving to the Barn so that we have extra space, in hopes that lots of you will come. If the weather is warm, be aware that the Barn has no air-conditioning. There are several fans, but we could use extras if you want to bring one along (and maybe an extension cord).

Suggested donation for the workshop is $10 for adults, $5 for students, but remember it is only “suggested,” and you can come to participate in any case!  Mihai is appearing at the Door County Folk Festival (www.dcff.net), but to my current knowledge is not giving workshops elsewhere in the Chicago area on this trip. 

Mihai is also doing a workshop at the Evanston Monday Night group on July 22.

You can download the flyer at http://www.fnal.gov/orgs/folkdance/MihaiJuly18.pdf  (If you run a group or will be seeing other dancers, kindly print a few and help us spread the word! – Thanks!)
