Welcome

Welcome to the PNA Centennial Dancers.

The PNA Centennial Dancers and Lodge 53 were formed as PNA Lodge 3240 in 1980, the Centennial year of the Polish National Alliance. Through the years the same group of members merged with other lodges to form Lodge 63, St. Cecelia Society. Our goal is to promote Polish heritage and culture through music and dance. Centennial Dancers learn National and Regional dance of Poland, and Polkas and Obereks of the United States which is the Polish American heritage.

32nd Annual Extravaganza - Recital to be held March 10, 2012

PNA Centennial Dancers Lodge 53 now is preparing for its 32nd Annual Extravaganza. The group's recital will be held on March 10, 2012 at the William F. Weber Performing Arts Center at Thurston High School (26255 Schoolcraft Road) in Redford, Michigan.

Our dancers of all ages are working diligently to learn folk dances and polkas in this annual celebration of Polish culture.
