Each year, over 400 dance students and artists from around the world converge on the East Campus of Duke University to discover the endless possibilities at the ADF School. Under the direction of Co-Deans Gerri Houlihan and James Frazier, the school hosts numerous programs including the Six Week School (June 13-July 27), the Three Week School for Young Dancers (July 6-27), and the Dance Professionals Workshop (various dates available).
Additionally, students in the Hollins University/American Dance Festival MFA Program come to the ADF each summer to both study from the renowned ADF faculty and present their work. This special MFA degree program is directed by Jeffrey N. Bullock and offers two tracks to specifically meet the needs of both seasoned professionals and students early in their careers.
