Invitation from the Co-Deans

The ADF is a phenomenon that one has to experience to fully understand. It is truly an American festival, thought it has international reach and draw. Here possibilities abound and the energy created by the convergence of dance artists from around the country and around the world is palpable. If you are looking for a place to delve deeply into contemporary dance training and to explore dance as an art form, we encourage you to join us in a six-week experience like no other. Come and discover something about yourself as you move through the world of dance with technique, performance, and creative classes from major established and emerging artists and performances by acclaimed dance companies. Engage in panel discussions and opportunities to perform, choreograph, and present work. Be a part of a vibrant community of creative artists. We invite you to experience for yourself the ADF. It will change your life!
