Developing cross-cultural connections through the performing arts
Join APSA's Dance Scholar Showcase
Since 2013, Americans Promoting Study Abroad (APSA) and New York-based Edge School of the Arts (ESOTA), have worked together to bring talented high-school dancers from Queens to Beijing for a 10-day dance exchange at renowned dance academies.
During the Exchange, the dancers learn Chinese traditional and folk dance, collaborate with other young Chinese dancers, attend language class, participate in skill development workshops and mentorship sessions with professionals working in Beijing, and experience daily life in China first-hand.
The exchange aims to inspire cross-cultural artistic expression, global citizenship, and to showcase the power of US-China collaboration in the arts.
This event will celebrate the end of the Dance Exchange and is designed to be informal, fun, and inspiring — featuring culminating routines from APSA Dance Scholars as well as local and foreign dance professionals who are currently studying or working in China.
All ticket proceeds will go directly towards the 2018 US-China Youth Dance Exchange.
