Hello Gainesville Area Israeli Dancers and Friends,

This Sunday night at 601 we are having a Swing and Social dance party Everyone is invited. You do not have to know swing. You can dance anyway you like. This might be our last night at 601. We will not have a regular weekly Sunday session in December, though we may meet sometime. Short lesson from 6:30 to 7:15 followed by dancing. It get darks early, which is good for a dance party.

Check to see if there is international folk dancing this week. Pretty sure there is no Israeli dancing this Thursday.

The Harvest Moon Swing Dance this Friday in Ybor City in Tampa, November 27. www.swingang.com/SpecialEvents/HarvestMoonBall.htm

Millions of people have seen this phenomenal video of the beautiful Ukranian artist Kseniya Simonova tell the dramatic story of the invasion and occupation of her country from 1941-1945 using only a light box, sand, music, her imagination and a candle. www.youtube.com/watch?v=518XP8prwZo

Someone sent me an amazing set of photos. Attached are thumbnails of some of them. If you would like to see these great images, let me know.
