Wednesday, August 26 • Live music by Radio Gatsby
Apparently Nathan has been doing Cat’s Corner for 20 years, so we’re throwing a party.
The last week of August marks two decades since Nathan joined Cat’s Corner alongside founder Catrine—and 25 years since Catrine started Cat’s Corner itself back in 2001. For our end-of-the-month theme night, we’re celebrating the whole long, wonderful history with Radio Gatsby, a little Jazz-Age glamour, and a very full dance floor.
Come dressed for a 1920s night out—or your own interpretation of it: fringe, velvet, waistcoats, wide-legged trousers, sequins, bow ties, vintage jewelry, Art Deco flair, or simply something fabulous. Costumes are optional.
Between band sets, we’ll have a Cat’s Corner Memory Jar for your favorite stories from years past, a community timeline where you can mark the year you first joined us, and a Misbehavin’ Time Capsule filled with notes, photos, predictions, and messages to the Cat’s Corner dancers of the future. We’ll seal it that night and open it in 2031.
Bring a memory. Leave something for the future. Dress up if the spirit moves you.
And most importantly, come dance with us as we celebrate twenty years of misbehavin’.
