NORTH YARMOUTH — Down East Friends of the Folk Arts will hold a community contradance on Sunday from 1 to 6 p.m. at the Wescustogo Grange Hall, Route 115.

The afternoon starts off at 1 p.m. with a community contradance featuring music by the band Scrod Pudding and calling by Chrissy Fowler. Each dance will be taught and can be enjoyed by anyone, no matter what age or experience level. If you can walk, you can contradance, a news release said.

Scrod Pudding will provide live music with Pam Weeks on fiddle, Jim Joseph on banjo and accordion, Bill Olson on bass, Eric Johnson on guitar and Greg Anderson on hammered dulcimer. Scrod Pudding has been performing at contradances for more than 20 years and tours nationally. The community contra runs from 1 to 3 p.m.

At 3:30 p.m., the band Sassafras Stomp and caller John McIntire will take the stage for more contradancing. Dances for the second half of the afternoon will be more robust, but still accessible to all. These dances will be taught and build on the dance figures that have already been learned.

Sassafras Stomp is an upcoming young and energetic band with Johanna Davis on fiddle, Adam Nordell on guitar and foot percussion, and Putnam Smith on banjo, guitar and mandolin.

Sassafras Stomp will be joined on stage at 5:30 p.m. by a plethora of callers who will lead a continuous progressive medley of dances. The medley will be “live” and not taught in advance, but will use dance moves already familiar from the afternoon of dancing. The medley presents a bit of a challenge, but offers a sweet reward in fun and a sense of accomplishment, and is always a favorite, a news release said.

Admission is $15; $10 for students or first dance only; for children under 12 $5 and for a family, a maximum of $25.
