Raising the Arab Voice in Contemporary Dance – FJK Dance Ninth Season

FJK DANCE, the 10-member Iraqi-curated contemporary dance company, will celebrate their ninth season. The FJK season celebrates the immigrant story in a multimedia presentation blending contemporary dance, music, and visual art. Fadi J. Khoury, FJK’S Arab-American choreographer and artistic director, breaks down stereotypes and expectations of gender roles, while bringing his Middle Eastern heritage to the stage. New and signature works will be shown.

“My creative process is anchored in peace building and bringing together a diverse group of international dance artists, musicians, and designers. I hope to inspire a cross-cultural dialogue, and a world where culture is safe,” says Mr. Khoury.
