October 2022
As we begin our 2022-2023 season, we are delighted to invite you to join us for The Ellen Sinopoli Dance Company’s Fall Gala on Sunday, October 2nd in a celebration of modern dance in the Capital Region. This year’s gala event, entitled A Sunday Soirée, will again take place at the magnificent Loft 433 that features both indoor and outdoor patio space on the top floor of the Hedley Building in Troy, NY.  In celebration of the collaborating artists who have been part of Ellen Sinopoli’s many artistic projects over the past 32 years, the Ellen Sinopoli Dance Company invites you to a very special evening as we celebrate the notable talents of sculptors CAROLINE RAMERSDORFER and JOHN VAN ALSTINE, and musicians BRIAN MELICK and MARIA ZEMANTAUSKI. The evening will feature a unique sampling of their many talents as well as a fascinating look into our past and future collaborative projects with them. You are invited to join us for an evening of delectable and innovative gourmet food offered by Mazzone Hospitality and an open bar with a broad selection of wine, beer and cocktails. It will be an evening noted for its fun-filled energy, fine food, stunning décor and, of course, for a dance party like no other. We thank you for your ongoing support and look forward to having you gather with us October 2nd!
