Swing Prom at Slovenian Workmen’s Home Gives Wallflowers a Second Chance

SwingProm

Sat 4/25 @ 8PM

If you didn’t get to go to your prom in high school or if you didn’t even WANT to go because it didn’t sound like much fun — too much jockeying for social status — here’s a prom you can go to with all your friends or by yourself and no one will be trying to gain points by snubbing you.

Get Hep Swing’s annual Swing Prom takes place in the unpretentious surroundings of the Slovenian Workmen’s Home on Waterloo Road, with plenty of room on the dance floor. Can’t dance? There’s no need to be a wallflower. Before the actual prom kicks off at 9pm, there’s a swing dance lesson from 8-9pm that will teach even the greenest dance beginning a few sharp moves.

True North Big Band will play live music for dancing from 9pm-midnight. Food and drink will be available for purchase, and there’ll be photo op areas so be sure to come dressed in your prom finery — however you define that. There are no rules! And the audience will get to vote for the prom Swing King and Queen and their court.

Is there an afterprom? Don’t be silly, Of course. Once the clock strikes midnight, the gang will head over to the nearby Grovewood to hang out until 2am.

Admission is $12 at the door — no need to buy a ticket in advance. Seniors and students are $10.
