Salsa Social
About
Salsa Social is a free Latin dance evening in Garibaldi Plaza, in Washington Square Park, Greenwich Village. It is run with the dance group Mi Salsa Dura Baile. Each session starts with a free lesson, and the plaza then becomes an open dance floor where you can practise what you have just learned. The series is promoted as needing no partner, so beginners and solo dancers fit in easily. This session is on Wednesday 14 October from 6pm to 9pm. The same event repeats weekly on Wednesdays, with the next listed date on 21 October. Our listing marks it as free, and no age limit or registration is printed, so treat it as a drop-in. It is outdoors, so check the NYC Parks listing for weather notices and wear shoes that are comfortable for turning on pavement. Washington Square Park is at Washington Square, New York, NY 10012. Take the A, B, C, D, E, F or M to W 4 St-Washington Sq, or the N, R or W to 8 St-NYU. If you arrive early, Art in the Park for children runs at 3pm in the large kids' playground on the same Wednesday, and Pétanque in the Park runs from noon.
