Overview
Performing Arts Japan Program for Europe (PAJ Europe) was started by the Japan Foundation in 2006 to revitalize and facilitate the exchange between leading artists in Europe and Japan. The main feature of this scheme is that this grant will be made available to those organisers based in Europe who are planning to organise Japan related performing arts projects. The applications will be screened by an annually appointed panel of advisors who are specialists in the area of performing arts in Europe. Successful applicants will receive grants as part of the cost of implementing their project.
