Winter & Spring 2023 Contra Dance Schedule



Pandemic Policy

Policies of the State of California do not allow us to require masks or vaccinations, since we are co-sponsored by the City of Santa Barbara, whose policies follow the state's.

That said, we encourage you to properly wear N-95, KN-95, KF-94, or equivalent masks and to be fully vaccinated, for the protection of yourself, and others, including those in your shared living spaces.
