Vintage Invasion


Look out!  The old dances are taking over the new generation!
February Dance Party


Our latest dance party, the third Saturday of the month

Sorry, St. Anne's had something more important to do Sept 15th...*sniff*
Stay tuned about October 20!

8:00-9:00 Lesson in Vintage Waltz
9:00-midnight Dancing with DJ Persephone

only $7 for class and dance, $5 after 9pm





Have you ever waltzed to Metallica or done a polka to They Might Be Giants? Yes?  Then you know how much fun it is.  No?  Well you don't have to miss out anymore.  Since we have hundreds of years of waltz music to choose from, the variety makes a wonderful, festive evening.  This is a casual, neighborhood party: a chance to meet people, bounce around, and generally make merry.  We'll have a potluck; you are welcome to bring snacks if you like.  Our hostesses will show you where everything is and what is available to refresh yourself with.  No alcohol, please, as we expect to have some dancers under 21 attending.

If you have not done much (or any) partner dancing before, make sure to come for the lesson, so we can get you moving and ready to sail across the floor.  Folks will probably show up later who have been doing this a while; don't be shy about asking them to dance with you too.  They'll probably be happy for the chance to show off. :)
Held at
St. Anne's Home
300 Lake St, San Francisco

If you are coming on Bart, get off at Montgomery and take the 38 Geary bus, or you can get off at the Embarcadero station and take the 1 California bus.  In either case, get off as close as you can to 4th Ave and walk north.

If you are driving from the East Bay, take the 9th st exit from Hwy 80, and go forward under the light at the bottom of the ramp.  Take your first right onto 9th, which will put you going north toward Market.  Stay in the middle lane (third from left) and it will cross market and become Larkin, continuing north. Turn left onto California and go west several miles until 4th Ave, where you turn right and go one block north.

If you are driving from the south, take 101 north until it ends. As it splits off, keep to the left and it will put you on Octavia, which makes you turn left onto Fell.  You may then turn right on Filmore or Divisidero, to go north, then left on California to travel west.  Turn right at 4th Ave and go one more block north.


Go through the big red iron gate, into the large, free parking lot available for our guests.




If you have any questions, please send an email to Persephone, Dancing (at) ZootSuitSwank (dot) com.
Otherwise, we look forward to seeing you there.
