Ellie Sandstrom is a choreographer, performer and dance educator fueled by movement in many forms. After graduating with a BFA from Cornish College of the Arts, she worked with many local notables for over a decade. Her work has been commissioned by a wide variety of organizations and production companies, as well as many local groups and artists. She has received funding from the Office of Arts & Culture and Artist Trust and is a “Spotlight Award” winner.

The Series For will include a solo, a duet, a trio and a quartet, with four dancers and two live musicians.
