Nandi Gattis, a senior at Baldwin High school, won this year's inaugural "So You Think You Can Dance — Milledgeville" competition for her liturgical and contemporary performances.
Gattis earned a $500 cash prize and raised the most funds to support charity National Multiple Sclerosis Society."I
did this dance for my sister's wedding and wanted to perform it again
for the community," said Gattis. "I'm so excited because this money will
help me pay for college."
Held at Magnolia Ballroom during the weekend, the competition showcased the dance talents of eight local dancers, who performed for more than 150 community members.
Sponsored by the nationally recognized nonprofit organization Art as an Agent for Change (A.A.C.), the competition became A.A.C.'s largest community production and fundraiser. Funds support future A.A.C. community arts events.
