THE DANCE PALACE: FIFTY ONE YEARS AND STILL GOING STRONG

Volume XXIV, Number 4 - Summer-Fall 2022
Dance Palace - Inverness

We reproduce here some of the history written in 1996 by Leonard Tennyson for the 25th anniversary, aug- mented by some later items. This is nowhere near a definitive history. For that one needs to read Dance Pal- ace Stories: How a Community Found Its Center and every single issue of the Point Reyes Light since 1971, since classes and events have been offered there ever since 1971. Photos courtesy of the Dance Palace Community & Cultural Center.
