Founded in 1997, this program offers Lexington middle and high school students the opportunity to study ballroom dance with some of New England's finest dance educators, including Bob Thomas, Cornell Coley, and others. Students learn swing, fox trot, and waltz at a series of early winter classes that culminate in a gala Valentine Dinner Dance. Classes promote fitness, coordination, and grace, and provide participants with a skill that can be cultivated over a lifetime. The Valentine Dance enables young participants to demonstrate what they've learned as well as to experience and appreciate social dancing in an intergenerational context.

Support of this programming is provided, in part, by the Lexington Council for the Arts and by local businesses and individual donations.
