●International Networking

JCDN is actively engaged in promoting international exchange and communication between artists and dance-related organizations in Japan and overseas.


⇒ The US/Japan Choreography Exchange Residencies Project
JCDN organizes international exchange programs in collaboration with various organizations,
including Dance Theater Workshop (DTW) and the Japan Societies of New York City, Philadelphia and Boston.
A variety of programs are held with the aim of encouraging the opening of deeper levels of exchange through dance between Japanese and American choreographers. Two choreographers from each country carry out one-to two-week residencies and have many opportunities to interact with members of local audiences and with dance communities.
