This is a list of upcoming events at which I will be teaching, calling, or DJing. Links and details are updated as they get closer, and I regularly add new events and classes. The current month's gigs can always be found at the top of the blog. Events and classes marked private are just that. They are included to head off inquiries about availability on those dates.
I am currently based in the USA (Connecticut) and expect to be here indefinitely. I am now once again willing to travel for events, classes, and DJing, providing that the coronavirus does not surge dangerously again, and am also still doing the occasional online class or lecture. Russia-based events and classes are unlikely for the foreseeable future.
Time zones for online events are given for wherever the event is based - please check carefully and adjust to match your own time zone.
Please email me directly if you are interested in hosting an event or workshop or in private videoconference lessons or lectures for yourself or a group.

Friday & Saturday, November 19th & 20th ~ Gettysburg, Pennsylvania
The 18th Annual Remembrance Day Dinner & Ball (Facebook community)
5:30pm-midnight each day. TWO nights! TWO formal dinners! TWO balls! This is the return of John Newbold's event! Both evenings will be formal Civil War-era events with pre-1865 costume (civilian or military) required. Advance reservations (dinner and ball or ball-only) are needed, and this event generally sells out well in advance! Friday night: 1860s fancy dress ball. Saturday night: classic formal Civil War ball. I will be calling with live music both evenings by the Fleeting Moments Orchestra and different beginner-friendly dance programs!
