Celebrating winter, an all abilities masquerade dance is coming to Harkness this month, offering a safe and accessible social event.
Hosted by support services organisation Limitless Adventures and Recreation, the Winter Masquerade Dance on Friday, May 30, was planned and designed by participants of the organisation’s Female Community Connections Program – including decorations, the event theme, and music.
Limitless program co-ordinator Sarah Barale said that the group hosted a dance event last year, which was well-received by attendees.
“It was awesome … it was great to see other people there, not just from our service, attend – and it was great to see everyone interacting [and] having fun,” Ms Barale said.
“I think there [are not many discos and parties] out there that are safe and accessible … and we’ve been able to host an event that everyone can look forward to and meet new people and form relationships and friendships through these events,” she said.
“Last year we had a jukebox [and] this year we have a DJ … the ladies in the Female Community Connections group have provided some genres and different artists they like listening to, as well as speaking to other participants … so there’s a wide range of music.”
The event will run from 7–10pm at the Arnolds Creek Children’s and Community Centre in Harkness on Friday, May 30.
Tickets cost $25 at the door with free entry for carers, and food, drinks, and masks will be provided for free.
