Community Barn Dance ~ Sunday, March 2, 2 pm

The Newport String Project and Common Fence Music are bringing an old-time barn dance to Newport and everyone is welcome. Learn what country folks did for fun back in the good old days, when families, friends and neighbors set their work aside and gathered to kick up their heels.  These simple old-time dances are fun for all ages.  No partner or experience necessary.
