About TEA+

This program aims to support opportunities to create and investigate artistic practices, and to apply new ideas generated through these activities to education and research.
Every year, one to three artists, musicians, performers, and researchers that graduated from National Taipei University of the Arts (TNUA) and Tokyo University of the Arts (Tokyo Geidai) are selected to stay for a period of one to three months. During their stay, they will produce artworks or conduct research, as well as participate in each other's educational programs by giving talks or workshops for both on- and off-campus audiences.
As art that crosses multiple cultures and disciplines is expected to play an increasingly important role in contemporary society, TEA+ will be responsible for fostering ambitious art practitioners who attempt to reinterpret art beyond the framework of borders and classifications.

Tokyo University of the Arts (Tokyo Geidai) and National Taipei University of the Arts (TNUA) have conducted a number of exchange programs between universities with similar areas of expertise.
The Kuandu Museum of Fine Arts (KdMoFA) of TNUA, as a university-affiliated art museum, has organized many international art programs.
The Graduate School of Global Arts(GA) at TOKYO GEIDAI is an educational institution that nurtures individuals who can conceive, practice, and theorize artistic and cultural activities.
TEA+ is a project implemented by KdMoFA and GA, utilizing the wide range of activities and resources of each university.
