Altan is an Irish music band that plays everything from old songs to jigs and reels. We've even used a couple of their songs for Ceili Class. In an excellent display of taste, the Sisters Folk Festival is bringing them in as part of their Free Summer Concert Series. This Thursday (tomorrow) they will be playing in Fir Street Park starting at 6:30. Bring a blanket or a chair and enjoy! Hope to see you there. #meesesighting

Parade time! Ceili of the Valley Society is holding their annual St. Patrick's Day parade tomorrow, departing promptly from the Salem Riverfront Carousel at 12 noon. Go show off your Irish spirit, and support an awesome organization and culture!
For more info, check out their Facebook event. Hey everybody!
We just heard about this neat thing that's happening at McMenamins tomorrow! Most of the relevant details are on the poster above, but here's the link to the Facebook event just in case. If you're free, check it out! Hey everybody,
If you're still looking for something fun to do this weekend, why not take a quick jaunt up to Beaverton this Saturday for a mini ceili and the International Festival? It looks like a lot of fun, plus it's free! Na Rosai will be playing around 1pm at the Howard M Terpenning Recreation Complex and Sam Keator (Tualatin ceilis and S and A Irish Entertainment) will be calling a few dances. If you go, let us know what you think, okay? For more info check out the Facebook event. Everyone raise your hands if you've been positively dying for another chance to dance.
Oh look! All of you raised your hands! Excellent! Here's your chance. Bend Community Contra Dance is having a FREE dance this Friday (yes, that's tomorrow) at 7pm at Crow's Feet Commons in Drake Park. While it's true that Contra is noticeably different from both English Country and Ceili dancing, if you already do either you'll pick it up really fast. This is a great opportunity to dance with a big group, and to experience the organized chaos that is big social dancing. This dance will be OUTSIDE on the patio. Choose thy shoes accordingly. And your outfit. Crow's Feet Commons is located at 875 NW Brooks St, Bend, Oregon 97701. The dance starts at 7pm, and it is free to participate. Keep dancing! Here's a link to the Facebook event for more info. |
