HOLDING COMMON GROUND: PATHWAYS TO CULTURAL EXCHANGE IN VIETNAM

This project is a cyclical seminar that brings together dance artists and scholars from the USA and Vietnam to participate in panel discussions, lectures, workshops and dance performances that celebrate diversity, inclusivity and cultural diplomacy. It focuses on the insight into the process and development of an educational, artistic and cultural dance seminar between Vietnam, USA and other Asian countries.

​

The relationship between the U.S.A. and Vietnam has become increasingly cooperative and comprehensive since relations formally began 25 years ago. Holding Common Ground reinforces the US/Vietnamese legacy of reconciliation and will continue to build these relationships through cultural diplomacy for the future of Art, education and freedom of expression in Vietnam.
