| DESCRIPTION |
Several times a year, this event is held at
the
Brooklyn Museum with
a good size dance floor area. There is a basic salsa lesson early in
the evening followed by performances and social dancing to DJ
music on a pro sound system. This venue is an interesting change
from our usual On 2 locations, usually held in a dance studio or club.
And if you want to arrive a bit early, you can spend some time looking at
the exhibits in the huge
Brooklyn Museum. The event is very well attended by On 2 mambo
regulars and new-comers. Including a lesson, performances
and DJ for social dancing, it is a nice way for a dancer to spend a Thursday
evening.
