we are the clay, and you are our potter;
we are all the work of your hand.” Isaiah 64:8
Merrick Masquerade Ball 2025
A Family Tradition
Creativity
Every year, our attendees share their creativity by choosing to either dovetail off of the ball's theme for the year, or come up with their own personal theme and run with it! From the adventurous solo, to the innovative family, the imaginations of our masqueraders is a sight to behold. With prizes for mask creation, couples' theme coordination, personal style, and more, you've got plenty of motivation to show us what you got!
Contra Dance
The Merrick Masquerade Ball isn't just a "dance". It's Contra Dance! Contra Dances hale from many parts of the world and are derived from folk dances. Not a contra dancer? Don't worry 'bout it! Attendees get the chance to learn the dances at scheduled dance practices leading up to the ball. At dance practice, we revisit dances we've done in the past, and add a couple of new ones each year.
Shenanigans
Along with dances, prizes, and general merriment, we play some pretty silly games through the night as well. The Balloon Waltz, the Broom Dance, seeking hidden treasures...this night is full of fun!
