About the Keene NH Pumpkin Festival Dance Project

Shhh… Can you keep a secret?

We are bringing a "flash mob" to the crowds of the world-famous Pumpkin Festival in Keene NH.

FLASH MOB: A large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual action for a brief time, then quickly disperse.

In short, we're gonna dance, dance, dance. If you are reading this, you are officially invited to participate.

The dance will take place on Friday, October 16 at 7 PM. There is one more rehearsal date planned for October 11 at 12 noon at the Keene Rec Center. Please come if you wish to join us and learn the choreographed routine. You can bookmark this website to stay up-to-date with news and info regarding the event.

Hope to see you there!
