VIDÉKI DANCERS
The group perform dances done both within present day Hungary and by ethnic Hungarians outside the country’s current borders. Their colorful costumes, whirling dances, and fiery music preserve the vibrant traditions of Hungarian folk dance. The group practices weekly, except in the summer, and welcomes new members.
