Once upon a time in NYC there was a DANCE contest called the Harvest Moon Ball. It started in 1935 and a famously featured significantly a Harlem dance that helped sky rocket this event (and the dance) to fame: The Lindy Hop! This contest ran over 50 years under the Daily News and a woman named Mama Lu Parks.
Exciting Harlem dance history that needs to be talked and preserved more – so join us tonite! We will meet some of the treasured Champions and Winners who participated in this contest – and did more to preserve Harlem’s dance professionally.
