Events Guide: Commons Dance Party
By Veronica Simmonds // 1 Comment
HALIFAX - Alas, summer is coming to an end. Perhaps a little Earl-y, but those hot hot Haligonian hay days are now making way for crisp evenings and crisply dressed students. BUT, before we retreat to the cozyness of our respective abodes, Jamie Mary Burnet and Su Donovaro are inviting us this friday to have one final hurrah in the Commons.
This summer the Commons has born witness to both the triumphs and the tragedies of the common people. It has also been given a taste of it's future, with the construction of a permanent power supply outlet to accomodate mega-concerts such as those that left their mark this summer.
In the context of these shifts and happenings, The Take Back the Common Dance Party is being thrown as a celebration of the Commons that was and the Commons that can be - a free public space to meet up with pals and strangers on a grassy dance floor! So get on out there for some sweet jams, Beyonce choreography and strobe light stylings!
WHAT: The Take Back the Commons Dance Party
WHERE: Halifax Commons, by the fountain
WHEN: Friday September 10, 9pm
HOW MUCH:FREE!! just bring the good feelings

If you would hold this event away from all the residences along North Park, Moran, June, Princess, Cunard and Robie streets, I'm sure the neighbours would appreciate it. Noise carries far in the night air and many people rise very early Saturday morn. There is loads and loads of grassy space over by the skate park, by the High School and over on the Garrison Grounds (where you'll only disturb the horses). Have a good party, stay safe and keep the neighbourhood in mind.
