Remember the 12 Days of Christmas? It used to be, in days gone by, Christmas was celebrated for twelve days in a row, with Christmas Day itself being the first day, and January 6th (Epiphany) being the twelfth and final day. Twelfth Night, preceeding Twelfth Day, used to be a big final celebration, and for many years, Set to Music had an annual ball on this date, or as near to it as possible. Our last one was in January 2020. <3 We're not able to have a full ball this year, but we are planning on a delightful dance party, one month away from today! Come on out for a fun evening of beautiful dances, some Christmas themed, and send the season out with joy. No better way to start a new year than with a dance! 😀
