🔴 ⚪ ODC/Dance names Mia J. Chong Co-Artistic Director!

ODC and ODC Founding Artistic Director Brenda Way are thrilled to announce Mia J. Chong as Co-Artistic Director. Chong currently serves as ODC/Dance’s Staging Director, and will step into her new role this December. She is also the founder and artistic director of EIGHT/MOVES, a contemporary dance company in San Francisco.

Chong has been a part of the ODC family since she was five years old – first as a student at ODC School, then as a member of the Dance Jam, ODC’s pre-professional teen dance company, followed by six seasons as a member of ODC/Dance, during which time she earned a coveted Princess Grace Award.

“I am deeply honored to step into the role of co-artistic director at ODC, a company that has long been a home for my artistic journey. The many years of guidance and partnership with Brenda and Kimi Okada have profoundly shaped me as an artist and leader. Together, I look forward to carrying ODC into its future with fresh eyes and a deep commitment to artists, audiences and community.”
