AACTMAD spokesperson Joan Hellman’s favorite dance styles are Scottish and contra, but “I am usually running the concert area, so I don’t get to see too much of the other areas,” Hellman confessed via e-mail. (The concert area is on Main Street between Washington and Liberty, and this year’s featured artists include The Millers, with Sheila Graziano; Laz of Gemini and Friends; Katseye; Annie and Rod Capps; and Hall and Morgan.)
