Calendar for all Central Ohio Contra Dances

There are two contra dance organizations in Columbus, Big Scioty Contra Dance and All Soles Contra and Squares. We have combined both schedules here so you don’t miss a dance!

Masks and COVID vaccination are optional. We reserve the right to reinstate requirements if conditions warrant it.
