Dance Professionals Workshop (DPW) participants are invited to choose one of the available weeks to attend the Festival. The weeks offered are
June 13–19, June 20–26, June 27–July 3, July 4–10, and July 11–17.
Selected weeks begin on a Friday and end on a Friday. Participants should be aware that ADF observes the 4th of July holiday and the class schedule for that day may be altered. Participants must check in by noon on the Friday of their selected week. Participants will design their course schedules from the Six Week School curriculum. They can take classes, observe faculty and students from around the globe, view performances, and meet informally with faculty and members of the ADF community. It is important to note that Six Week School classes are accumulative in nature, and faculty may choose to build upon the previous weeks’ classes. This uniquely designed program allows participants to personalize their ADF experience according to their professional needs and interests. Each participant will receive a complimentary ticket to one performance by each visiting company in residence the week of their stay. All DPW participants are invited to attend the two-hour creative inquiry workshops on Wednesdays. The creative inquiry workshop will provide a place for DPW participants to dialogue with each other about their research and issues impacting their current artistic practice.
