The Cellspace alternative Milonga is an effort to balance out the wonderful classic tango events throughout SF and the Bay Area with a progressive community endeavor.
Checkout the Project Tango DJ Resource page for more info on alternative dj'ing & music!
We are developing a pool of alternative DJ's that are featured on a regular basis, including a DJ Duel usually held on the 4th Weds. of each month.
From time to time we also put on special theme nights and have performances of various art forms (not just tango)!
This is a "politically neutral" tango event with all attempts directed towards minimal interruptions & maximum dance time during the evening.
A flyer table is provided for all folks to advertise their classes & events,
however, detailed verbal announcements will not be made.
After a performance, a brief verbal announcement is permitted to promote a relavent class or event pertaining to the performers.
All the folks who help out with this event are donating their time and talent...and there are many individuals we wish to thank!!!
We are always looking for new volunteers to help in set-up, break-down, food, water, house management, dj'ing, etc.
Volunteers get free admission to the Cellspace alternative Milonga.
If you are interested in volunteering or performing at Cellspace please contact either John Chang
or Homer Ladas.
