i KADA Contemporary Dance Company is holding KoDaFe in NYC 2018 International Dance Festival at Ailey CitiGroup Theater on June 29th and 30th, 2018 at 7:30pm

About KoDaFe in NYC..

KoDaFe in NYC brings various types of dance companies together to share the same stage and contribute to our cultural exchange mission and program. Through the festival, we forge strong bonds for the future. 

The theme of this year’s festival is " The poetic spirit ".  The poet "has the power to 're tune' and reconnect a discordant, divided world." Art and culture are more than forms of entertainment. They are the living expression of the human spirit and the chords that connect not only individuals but cultures, drawing them together in recognition of our common humanity. 

"The life and essence of art--whether it be painting, music, or dance--lies in expressing through a wellspring of emotion the universal realm of the human spirit. It is a melding of the individual and the universal. That is why great art reaches out beyond ethnic and national barriers to move people all over the world." -  Daisaku Ikeda

Through this theme we hope to share tranquility, hope and unity. With the spirit of cultural exchange and togetherness, we are seeking to work with as many artists from different backgrounds and fuse the world of dance with music, painting, photography and cinematography.

We are accepting applications from all dance genres i.e Contemporary dance, Hip Hop, Musical Theatre, Ballet, Modern, and Traditional dance, we are looking forward to sharing the stage with a great range of dance performers!

i KADA is also hosting a special Master class on June 25th, 2018! For those interested in teaching a workshop, we are offering a $35 package deal for the Master class on June 25th and for the festival application.
