Your mother probably told you not to play with fire. But how about dancing with it? The Dance Afire steam punks performed at the Takoma Park, Maryland, Gazebo for Art Hop on Saturday, March 24.

Dance Afire is based in Silver Spring, Maryland. To learn more about these pyro maniacs, visit myspace.com/danceafire.

Julie Wiatt moved to Takoma Park with husband “Coach G” Weinstein and son Zak during cicada season May 1987. They (Julie, G and Zak, not the cicadas) were part of a migratory pattern from an Adams Morgan group house. Before coming to this area she was a wanderer, taking photos in St Croix, working on a community newspaper in East Boston, tracking bats in Panama, studying biology and art in New York City. Julie loves the Voice, considering it a wonderful way to know and celebrate Takoma Park and Silver Spring.
