Performing Arts Exchange: THE place to book and showcase performing artists
The Performing Arts Exchange, or PAE, is an annual performing arts booking, showcasing and professional development conference managed by South Arts and hosted by a different eastern city each year. The 2013 PAE is scheduled for Sept. 23-26 in Nashville, TN.
PAE is the primary marketplace and forum for performing arts presenting and touring – artists and work, ideas, learning and information – in the eastern U.S. The purpose of PAE is to connect artists with audiences by fostering excellence in all aspects of presenting and touring the performing arts.
