An important way that we forge connections between US and UK arts organizations is by providing opportunities to see work and meet UK artists. We curate visits to the UK and partner with UK organizations to develop showcases of British work. Examples of previous showcases include:

• Our biennial Edinburgh Showcase of contemporary British theater

• New Directions screenings of British film

• The Edinburgh Bookcase and the London Book Fair

• British Dance Edition and UKMOVES

• Celtic Connections

• 100% Design and other showcases of new British innovation in visual arts
