Emerging Artists Forum

 

"The Emerging Artists Forum (EAF), a subset of IDEA, was established in November 2003 to nurture the future of Indian Dance in the DC metro area. The members of EAF are required to be between 18 and 30 years of age. Membership for EAF is $50/- a calendar year.

Its mission is to give local young artists a chance to cultivate and build upon the traditions of Indian classical dance, by providing an open forum in which they can network, learn from each other, and work and perform together. The organization will expand the world of Indian classical dance by encouraging new ideas and concepts. EAF intends to hold regular lecture demonstration sessions, panel discussions, and invite and interact with visiting artists from India and around the U.S."
