***We are a ‘boosted-only‘ event (see exceptions below). Masks are optional. See below for details***
*If you buy a ticket and can’t come due to Covid, we offer a refund (minus processing fees) if requested before 12pm on Tuesday.

Dancers of the Bay Area,

Tickets are $20 to $22 pre-sale (or cash/Venmo at the door)
**There is limited capacity at EBCS, and we have sold out almost every time, so it is imperative to get advance tickets!
East Bay Community Dance is an all-vaccinated event. EBCD is pleased to offer a dance space for those who desire a fully-vaccinated dance experience. This means that you must have received the second shot of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, or one shot of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine, two weeks before you attend. There are three ways to show your vaccination status:
1. Bring your completed vaccination card to the dance.
2. Go to https://myvaccinerecord.cdph.ca.gov to get an electronic version of your vaccination record, and show it at the door. You might want to save a screenshot of the record your receive on your phone.
3. Upload a photo of your vaccination card via our Vaccination Record Upload Form at https://forms.gle/2NaXSvNrx3Vr9JU37.
Once we have reviewed your card, we will add your name to our list of dancers who have been vaccinated and no longer need to show proof of vaccination status at the door.
People who are unable to show proof of vaccination will not be admitted.
We look forward to dancing with you!

**Guidelines
We will hold East Bay Community Dance this Tuesday and in future weeks as long as conditions don’t worsen significantly and Alameda County doesn’t change its regulations and guidance.
We believe everyone attending should be aware that large gatherings like EBCD are not without risk. Attendance is a choice. Mask-wearing is optional, but encouraged if it helps you to feel safer.
Cases being spread among vaccinated people with normal immune systems are generally very mild, which is why we feel it’s okay to hold the dance. However, even a mild case of covid requires 10 days of isolation, and Covid can be passed to unvaccinated and immunocompromised people with serious consequences. So every attendee at EBCD should evaluate the risks for themselves.
If you don’t think you are going to be able to come, please don’t buy a ticket! We often sell out, so it is possible to sell your ticket on the Facebook event page the day of usually. We do offer limited refunds for those who cannot come because of a Covid infection. Message us at ebcommunityspace@gmail.com

Description:
East Bay Community Space is a beautiful and inclusive venue available for public and private events, co-working, and community building.
The Main Space is ideal for performances, meetings, workshops, film screenings, and celebrations such as birthdays, baby showers, anniversaries, and wedding receptions.
The Telegraph Room works well for similar events in a more intimate setting.
The Meeting Room is an ideal space for meditation, yoga practice, bodywork/treatment sessions, and smaller group meetings.
The Co-Working Space provides an affordable alternative for artists, activists, writers, entrepreneurs, and telecommuters looking for a comfortable and inclusive work space.
We also have unstructured periods when the space is open to everyone, under the guidance of a volunteer host. We call this Open Time. During these times, the Main Space is available for dance, personal yoga practice, or hanging out. Please contact us if you’d like to host Open Time, or if you’d like to volunteer.
The space is fully permitted, accessible, and built to modern codes. We have a wheelchair lift serving our second floor spaces, ADA-compliant access and all-gender restrooms. We are a scent-free and chemical-free environment.
We have created the Community Space in cooperation with others who share our vision of community. We hope you’ll join us!
