Celebrating 15 years of promoting tango as a dance, music & poetry that can enrich anyone's life.
Since 2008, the Philadelphia Argentine Tango School (PATS) has been promoting Argentine tango as a form of dance, music and poetry that can enrich anyone’s life. Tango dancing is based on walking, and is accessible to people of all ages. Tango music is in the midst of a renaissance and, as one of the leading tango music presenters in the United States, PATS is honored to be part of that. New tango

Hi All,
I asked Meredith if I could take over the PATs email list and social media so I could share a message about this year’s Philadelphia Tango Festival.
Some of you have already signed up to attend the festival, to volunteer, or both. Thank you for that. If you haven’t signed up, I am writing today to encourage everyone to please join us at the festival. Take some classes, attend our lectures and events, listen to our concerts, and attend our milongas. If you’re unsure about attending or volunteering, here are a few thoughts:
Many of us have felt helpless in the wake of Ignacio’s strokes. This is a way that you can support both Meredith and the Philadelphia tango family, and be in community with us all while doing so.
Ignacio is going to require dedicated care for many months to come. There may not be another Philadelphia Tango Festival at the same yearly cadence as before, so if you skip this year, you may have to wait a few years for another festival. The chance to learn with our visiting instructors, lecturers, and musicians is a huge opportunity, and one that may come less frequently after this year. Take advantage of it while it’s here!
We desperately need volunteers to help Meredith make the festival happen. The festival preparations are a full time job, and Meredith is already doing the full time job of caring for Ignacio. Volunteers like myself are trying to help, but we really need more community support.
How can you help?
If you haven’t signed up for the festival, please do! Pre sales are hugely helpful for our planning and take a lot of pressure off of Meredith
Volunteer with us: We will have three volunteer days: Saturday, May 11th, and Saturday & Sunday, May 18 & 19, where we’ll work on administrative prep and preparing the festival space.
If you can volunteer and have not signed up yet, please fill out the volunteer form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd3TJtarCWgdpkGk0Zbwr44NcjwSsU-dNvTbdFUU5thEv-wIA/viewform
Thank you, and I hope to hug and dance with you all at the Philadelphia Tango Festival, May 24-27th, 2024.
-Karen
