Event Overview

                                                                                                       
After more than a year of canceled, postponed, or reimagined performances, U.S. arts organizations, presenters, and agents have resumed programming and planning for the 2021-22 season, only to find the U.S. is not quite ready to open our borders for all international artists. 

In this free 75-minute webinar, experts from Tamizdat and the hosts of ArtistsfromAbroad.org – the Association of Performing Arts Professionals and the League of American Orchestras – will describe what it takes to secure U.S. artist visas and navigate COVID-19 travel restrictions right now. We will also cover what the current and long-term policy environment means for seeking more equitable opportunities to support international cultural activity.  

This webinar will be recorded, and we welcome your questions in advance to inform the focus of this event. Please select either "Live Participant" (which is capped at 1000 attendees) or "Recording Only" below.        

Presented by the Association of Performing Arts Professionals, League of American Orchestras, and Tamizdat
