Global Goings-on

We are getting excited about a unique event coming to the Globe on the public holiday Monday 29 August. A fusion of Tango and Jazz, with dancing, listening, tea and tequila.

(Our regular More Jam session, always held on the fourth Sunday of the month, 3-6pm, will go ahead as usual.)
