Fall Dance Fusion showcases a variety of choreographic works, including jazz and ballet. Featured choreographers include students Kris Knighton, Amy Miltonberger, Amy Szabo and Veronica Wandasiewicz and faculty members Jon Sloven, Donna Douglas and Nichole Quinn. Additionally, Cecilia Ferguson-Bell, grand prize winner of the Dance program's inaugural Choreographer's Showcase, will present her winning duet, "Familiar Discord."

"All of the works presented at the showcase were extremely strong and entertaining. The judges, which included major dance company artistic directors, all felt Cecilia's work truly created a unique mood and environment that invited and engaged the audience," said COD adjunct Dance faculty member Jon Sloven. "The judges and I agreed Cecilia's creativity in movement and concept would be a great feature in our Fall Dance Fusion show."

The Nov. 6 event also features guest artists Taal from Soorya Dance School, a local Indian Performing Arts organization.

Tickets to the dance concert are $4.
