Friday Night Swing
page for Friday Night Swing. Friday Night Swing (FNS) is part of AACTMAD (Ann Arbor Council for Traditional Music and Dance). Will have live music!
We host special swing dances throughout the year which include live music, workshops or contests to enrich the local dance scene and draw dancers from surrounding communities. Although we do not host our own weekly dance, we also use this page and our Facebook group to promote swing dances in our area.
