A sociable occasion to enjoy some of the
dances learnt in the workshops in the spirit of a family gathering. The
programme will feature dances learnt during the season, but visitors
will be welcome, with most dances called. Elegant refreshments in
Regency style will be served with tea and coffee. We invite you to wear
your best outfit, whether Regency in style or not. The price and other details will be confirmed nearer the date. | ||
Beginners are welcome. All workshops 14:00-18:00 with a break for refreshments. We realise that some people need to leave earlier for various reasons, so the main dances for each session will usually be completed by 17:00, with some bonus material for those who can stay until 18:00. | |||
Price: £10 per workshop. |
Brickhill Community Centre (Avon Drive, Bedford, MK41 7AF), is about 2 miles north of Bedford town centre, just off Kimbolton Road (B660) at the intersection of Avon Drive and Waveney Avenue. There is a car park at the hall. Bus route no 6 runs every 12 minutes from Bedford bus station and stops just outside.
The door is normally locked, so use the intercom beside it to call the upper hall. When admitted, go through the doors to the back of the building and take the stairs up to the first floor.
The community centre car park entrance is adjacent to the bus stop on Avon Drive in the centre of the map below. Click 'View larger map' to go to the Google Maps web site for directions.
