Tariq Mitri

Tariq Mitri is a gay, Palestinian-American dancer, choreographer, and teacher in Seattle, WA. In 2015, he graduated from the California Institute of the Arts and cultivated a long-standing friendship and artistic relationship with collaborator, Jenna Eady. Tariq has danced for 20+ choreographers between Los Angeles, Seattle, and New York, and has been a rehearsal director, and co-director. Mitri began creating work in 2022, and is finding a deeper understanding of his Palestinian heritage within his art-making and how it coincides with his American upbringing.
