Boston Gender Free Contra Dance for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer Folks and Friends!
Live music
All dances taught
Beginners encouraged—come early!
No partner necessary
Any sexual orientation and gender expression is welcome
Dances normally run 7:30 to 11:00pm. The fee is usually $10, students $6. But we also take less if that's what you can afford. We do pass a bucket for our live music fund, and you can ask the person at the door about sponsoring future dances.
We welcome guest callers for the first dance after the break. Contact Bob Peterson at caller AT contra corner.com to reserve a slot.

Help Us
We run our dances with volunteer help: you! The Organizers do the hard parts but we need volunteers for easy jobs every dance:
- Hall setup (2 positions)—6:30 to 7:15—plus get into the dance free
- Greeter and Door sitter (1 position)—7:15 to break—plus get into your next dance free
- Announcer (1 position)—just before break
We also need people to stay around at the end to tear down and clean up. If you want to learn how to operate the sound board, contact a steering committee member.
Organizers: Bob Peterson, Chris Ricciotti, Jana Pickert, John Gintell, Mike Miller, Robert Coren, Robin Fox, Myles Dakin.
