LCC Fall Swing Fling

Jazz enthusiasts will have the opportunity to dance along to the sounds of the big-band era 6 to 9 p.m. Friday (Nov. 1) at Lansing Community College’s Gannon Commons. The LCC Jazz Band, alongside local vocalist AnnaMaria Horn, will perform classics from the 1930s, ‘40s and ‘50s, including songs by Duke Ellington, Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Count Basie and many more jazz greats. Local dance instructors will be in attendance to teach swing dance techniques throughout the evening.

“There aren’t many opportunities in the Lansing area to dance to a live big band,” LCC Jazz Band director Jonathon Gerwitz said. “I'm very excited to help create an opportunity to connect and engage with not only the LCC community but also the Greater Lansing community.”

The event is free and open to the public. Free parking is available on Grand Avenue and the first floor of the Gannon ramp. For more information, visit facebook.com/LCCPerformingArts.
