Meet This Artist: Artistic Director Joseph Megel

The Chatham Arts Council is investing in artists through our Meet This Artist series, introducing you to Chatham County’s creative community one interview at a time.

In this special audio feature, we meet Joseph Megel, longtime artistic director of the Process Series at UNC–Chapel Hill. His work has championed new plays, performance art, dance, and interdisciplinary collaborations for nearly two decades, giving audiences a rare look into how creative work evolves from idea to stage.

So, take a look–or in this case, have a listen—and meet your very inspiring neighbor.
