Founded in 1934 in Bennington, Vermont, with choreographers Martha Graham, Hanya Hold, Doris Humphrey, and Charles Weidman, the Festival serves professional and pre-professional dancers from around the world.
The ADF is held for six weeks each summer at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. The studios and student dormitories are spread across the Geortian-style campus. ADF students are able to use Duke facilities such as swimming pools, tennis courts, bookstores, libraries, and computer labs.
At the heart of ADF dancers from around the country and around the world come to train and to create, to see, and to be seen. Students of all levels are invited to engage in collaborative creative processes, with ADF's diverse and outstanding faculty, extraordinary musicians, and vibrant student body.
An essential component of the student experience during the summer is the opportunity to see an exciting array of programs featuring companies representing both the established greats and the cutting edge in modern dance.
The minimum age for application is 16. Students under 18 will live in a supervised dorm.
