• Never Dream Less Foundations 2nd Annual Reality Check

  <p>Never Dream less Foundations is a youth program dedicated to teaching kids to have organic fun without the use of electronics and learning social skills. The kids are able to use dance and arts to express themselves and we teach the kid to have organic fun with old school games with a twist. We try to build the kids up to bring out their confidence and build leadership skills. The Reality Check is a way to award the kids for their hard work and dedication, the kids grow in our program to be mentors, some have choreographed our dance routines, and many have just overcome their own struggles and so much more. There hard work has not gone unnoticed, and we want them to know that. The Reality Check will have many guest speakers and entertainers. We have also invited other community leaders and other programs to give awards to kids they believe should be recognized as well. This year's Reality Checks theme is mental Awareness, we have invited different professionals to speak on the matter and also some of the kids will share their experiences.&nbsp;</p> 2023-09-12 15:00:00 -0500

• Dandelion Stompers record release party & swing dance

  <p>Voted “Best Local Band” by Little Village Magazine for 2022, join us for a special evening of music and dancing, celebrating Dandelion Stompers debut album, "Whirlwind Sessions Volume 1"!</p><p>About the Stompers: Specializing in honoring 1920s trad jazz composers and musicians with dance inspiring, New Orleans-style treatments, The Dandelions Stompers were founded in 2014 by band leader and bari sax aficionado Christopher Clark. Handing the lead mic to jazz singer Katie Roche, they tapped husband and wife Marc (guitar) and Brandi (stand-up bass) Janssen to hold down the rhythm section, adding one of the area’s premier jazz drummers Tim Crumley, driving on the skins. No NOLA style outfit would be complete without a heavy dose of brass and wood. Rounding out the horn section is soaring clarinet of Suzanne Smith, Devin van Holsteijn on his lilting alto sax, and Katie Greenstein blasting on trumpet.</p> 2023-09-19 10:00:00 -0500
