The Living Tradition Home Page What is The Living Tradition?The Living Tradition is a non-profit organization working to support and preserve traditional music and dance in Southern California. We host contra dances and contemporary and traditional folk music concerts at the beautiful Anaheim Downtown Community Center at 250 E. Center St., in Anaheim, California. We also host traditional music jams. Jams are now held as SPECIAL EVENTS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. The location will be specified for each jam.
All of our events are
family-friendly and are open to the public. Admission
prices for dances and concerts are modest, and children
under 18 years are free with a paid adult. We ask for
a
contribution of $3 to
$5 per person at our music jams to defray rental
costs. Bring your friends, make new
friends, get some exercise (dancing), or just relax and
enjoy traditional American music. Our Concerts
