WITAM!

The Polish Heritage Dancers of Western New York are dedicated to promoting our ancestral heritage through the performance of traditional songs and folk dances. Adults, teens and children (4 and older) are encouraged to join this performing Polish folk dance group. Costumes are provided by the group. No dance experience necessary, just a willingness to have fun and make new friends!

Come help us celebrate the beautiful traditions of Poland!
