Swedish Folk Dance with the Lindsborg Folkdanslag In-Person
Lindsborg, Kansas, is known for its strong Swedish heritage and the remarkable way those traditions are being passed to the next generation. The Lindsborg Folkdanslag is a shining example. This group of folk dancers will demonstrate lively variations of the polska, waltz, polka, and engelskas, and invite the audience to join. They will perform in handmade folk costumes — some handed down from early ancestors — and share those stories, too.
Registration is required for this event and will open on Monday, May 18, at 8 a.m. Use the form on this page to sign up.
This event is part of "Kansas Folklife: Celebrating Kansas Traditions," a series of folklife presentations developed by Humanities Kansas recognizing the nation's milestone 250th anniversary. "Kansas Folklife" is part of "By the People: Beyond 250," a national initiative of the Federation of State Humanities Councils and the Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage.
