This weekend in Norwood, MA

A welcoming class for adult beginners focused on building rhythm, refining footwork, improving posture, and developing coordination, body control, confidence, and overall Latin dance technique. No prior dance experience or partner is needed. Participants progress step by step through Cha Cha fundamentals, including timing and weight transfer, along with lock steps, proper foot pressure, and practical body coordination. Simple combinations tie everything together so new dancers can move comfortably and confidently.

DragonCon’s annual X-Men Universe photo shoot brings together cosplayers at Hilton Steps E for a collaborative session celebrating every corner of the mutant world. All versions are welcome, and multiple portrayals of the same character are perfectly fine. Costumes are embraced no matter how they were sourced, whether handcrafted, commissioned, or purchased. Representations from comic continuities like 616 and Ultimate, screen adaptations and animated series, genderbent and crossplay interpretations, and steampunk takes are all in scope. Parody mashups that combine different licenses are not included, and original interpretations should still read clearly as the intended character. Direction is by Myron Abernathy, also known as Smoove Cosplaya, with photography led by Dr. LAW’s Photolab. Deadpool cosplayers are part of the welcome mix, though a small showing is requested so the gathering stays balanced. Those looking for a dedicated Deadpool event can find one through the community group focused on that character.
