On Saturday, June 2, 2012, Spoke the Hub Dancing and Brooklyn

day-long celebration of the performing arts held in Park
Slope’s community gardens, the Berkeley- Carroll Performance Space, and the
Brooklyn Conservatory of Music.

Local Produce’s “garden tour” features Brooklyn-grown music,
theater and dance performances in three community gardens – Warren / St. Marks

“Local Produce” rolls into the evening with a Swing Dance Party at
the Brooklyn Conservatory of Music featuring the live music of Art Lillard’s
Heavenly Big Band. No worries if you’re a beginner: Laurie Shayler, one of
Brooklyn’s finest ballroom dance instructors, will teach the basics at 7:30pm
so everyone can swing on through the night!

And it’s all as free as the
breeze!
