The Door County Folk Alliance is dedicated to promoting fun through folk dance and music! We sponsor folk dances monthly—come join us for some rollicking fun!
The roots of the Door County Folk Alliance go back to 1995, when a group of folk musicians and dance enthusiasts, led by Cy Rosenthal of Sturgeon Bay, came together to play music and hold barn dances. Cy, who sang and played the tin whistle, saw contra dancing as a way of bringing together different generations of people in a healthy do-it-yourself activity. He also saw local folk bands as a way for musicians to play together, support each other, and improve their skills. The new organization was first named The Sugar on the Floor Barn Dance Society. In 2007 the group reorganized as a not-for-profit organization: the Door County Folk Alliance. Cy died unexpectedly in 2010, but the organization he founded maintains his goal of building community through music and dance. And it still holds to Cy’s motto: “You can’t beat fun for a good time.”
