When I receive a phone call or e-mail about hiring Arabian Flair, the customer usually has several questions. The first is whether or not a belly dancer would be the right fit for their event or party. Belly dancers are hired for parties, birthdays, anniversaries, belly-grams, weddings, corporate events, gallery opening, fundraisers, and much more. Belly dancers are wonderful for family friendly events, with bright costumes, peppy music, and entertainment for everyone. Pr... Read More

Belly Dance... just say it! Belly Dance! Didn't that feel great!?! Well, guess what... that was made up by a guy trying to sell tickets to a bunch of folks who (up until that point) thought it was folk dancing at the World's Fair.

The Alternative Christmas Market: Give the Gift of Giving Not surprisingly, many stores have had a Christmas aisle since late Septemer. It seems they are ready to cash in earlier and earlier every year. Now that the holidays are “officially” upon us, one thing most of us can agree on is that the season has become overly commercialized and has lost it's true meaning. No matter which holiday you celebrate, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or the Seinfeld-ins... Read More

Every organization from The Brogan to the Tallahassee Museum to local churches and non-profits like Big Brothers Big Sisters and Habitat for Humanity are taking the initiative and posting their own events to share and inform us all.
