Century Ballroom's Offerings for December and 2011 NEW Queer Schedule

As we are drawing upon another year's end I want to mention some of the offerings that Century Ballroom has added to their extensive schedule that are specifically for the queer community.  The main thing to note is starting in January the OutDancing Gay Events are changing from Friday to Saturday evenings.  Basically there will be queer dancing on most Saturdays evenings at Century!

Remember that often you can check the Seattle Announcements Calendar for information that is not found written here as it is updated even when I am not posting the information here (as this is really a dual gig keeping the calendar current and writing tidbits).  Century Ballroom has added this last year the addition of two more dance spaces, West and East Hall both located in Century's main building Oddfellows Hall.
