History & Vision

Red brick building with a green awning that reads "Tapestry Folkdance Center" and the address 3748, with a sidewalk in front.

Building on over 40 years of fostering joy and community through dance and music, Tapestry Folkdance Center envisions itself as a vibrant hub in the heart of south Minneapolis, where people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds can experience the joys of dance from a rich tapestry of participatory dance forms.
