Whether you can “cut a rug” or not, the Plain City Big Band Dance is a lot of fun. You can sit on the sidelines and watch the dancers or join in and strut your stuff. But please boogie in and support your local (and lovely) library.

Additionally, throughout the evening, a slide show will be running of photos of Plain City in the 1940’s and 50’s. A picture honor roll of local veterans will also be featured.

You can purchase tickets in advance at the Plain City Public Library, 305 West Main Street. The library is open today, Thursday, until 9 pm.
