Kenny & Choi, return on Saturday, Nov. 22.  They will then return again for one more time before the year is done. 


Next year we have some exciting events early on.  In late February we have Eva & Pablo back, practitioners of traditional milonguero style.  In March we have a return of the Redwood Tango Ensemble, so much to look forward to - stay tuned.


Until later, Mary
