Day of Dance at Madrone A&S and Bardic Championships

The Canton of Porte de l'Eau will be hosting its seventeenth annual Day of Dance on October 2 in Kirkland, in conjunction with the Barony of Madrone's A&S and Bardic championships.

Your day as a dancer will be spent learning and practicing a variety of dances, drawn from a variety of period sources. Some will be familiar friends of our local dance community; others will be taught for the first time at Day of Dance this year.

Dance instruction begins at 10:00 am. After a potluck dinner at 5:00 pm, we'll celebrate with the Champions' Ball at 6:00 pm, with music provided by the talented musicians of the Day of Dance Band.
