ONU has hosted artistic director Bill Wade and teaching artist Joshua Brown for creative lectures, master classes, choreography collaboration and a performance showcasing the merging of both companies in concert.
Inlet Dance Theatre’s motto is “… using dance to further people.” Founded in 2001, Inlet embodies the long-standing belief that dance viewing, training and performing experiences may serve as tools to bring about personal growth and development. Inlet’s collaborative artistic staff build the company’s solid reputation for uplifting individuals and engaging new audiences via performances and educational programming. During Inlet's 20-year history, the organization has transformed from a small dance company with local impact into a celebrated organization that reaches people on an international level.
