Upcoming Events
The events listed on this page are submitted by the dancers hosting
the events.  Surayyah does not specifically review any events listed.  
Because I cannot know everything that is going on at all times, if you
know of any events that are not listed here please send me more info
so I can add it to my list.  My goal for this page is to have the most
complete listing of belly dance events for the Lehigh Valley and
surrounding areas.  Items with a "
check mark" are events that
Surayyah is hosting, performing at or attending.
