Join us on Thursday, June 11 for “Dance for Solace,” our seasonal early evening dance party fundraiser from 6:00–8:00 pm at Saxtons River Distillery (155 Chickering Drive, Brattleboro). A cash bar will be available. 

Our Dance for Solace fundraiser returns on Thursday, June 11, from 6:00–8:00 pm at Saxtons River Distillery (155 Chickering Drive, Brattleboro). Dance your way into summer at our seasonal early evening dance party with a sun-soaked twist: Beach Party Beats.

Bring in summer. Move your body. Be home by 9. 

This summer edition brings the beach to Brattleboro. DJ Mālama returns to the decks with a sun-soaked set spanning reggae, ska, the Beach Boys, and all manner of lively, feel-good music guaranteed to keep the floor moving and the spirits soaring. Shake off whatever is weighing on you in a joyful space.

The dance floor is open to everyone and intentionally centers women, queer, trans, and nonbinary community members — because everyone deserves a place to exhale, move, and feel strong.

Want to dress the part? Center for Solace's beloved thrift store, Experienced Goods, will feature a special rack of beach party threads for those who want to get into the spirit — the perfect excuse to find your summer look before the party.

Admission is $15–$40 at the door, with all proceeds benefiting Center for Solace’s many free programs. A cash bar will be available. Space is limited, so arrive on time!
