Performing Arts Japan
The Performing Arts JAPAN (PAJ) program was founded in 1994 to establish a system for promoting Japanese performing arts in the United States. The PAJ program supports the initiatives taken by U.S. nonprofit organizations to provide geographically diverse American audiences with greater exposure to Japanese performing arts. PAJ also encourages collaborations between American and Japanese artists, which will foster an appreciation of Japanese culture when performed before American audiences.
