The organization is dedicated to the lifecycle of the artistic process, aiming to inspire audiences, cultivate artists, engage community, and foster diversity and inclusion through dance. A testimonial from K.K. highlights the impact of ODC's need-based scholarships, which provided access to quality arts education and mentorship.
