American Tap Dance Foundation
The American Tap Dance Foundation’s INTERNATIONAL TAP DANCE ZOOM FORUM will return on Tuesday, January 10 at 10am ET and 9pm ET, with participants from the USA, Canada, Brazil, Japan, Australia, Mexico, Germany and Spain joining together to compare notes on the art form’s funding, perception, and programing. Discussions will range from showcasing work, events, and classes to sharing issues, fears, and questions about the field. The ATDF International Tap Dance Zoom Forum, which began in 2021 during Tap City, the NYC Tap Festival, will continue quarterly, hoping to create a greater understanding between the world’s diverse tap dance scenes.
Two International Tap Dance Zoom Forum sessions have been scheduled for January 10, to accommodate Asia and Australia area participants. THIS EVENT IS FREE. To join the discussion, register at: atdf.org/events.
According to Tony Waag, ATDF Executive Director, "The overwhelming response to our Tap Dance Zoom Forum has made me decide to continue the project into 2023. Tap dance has taken me all over the world, where I’ve found a vibrant international tap dance scene. My commitment is to bring that global tap dance community together.”
