J CHEN PROJECT, founded in 2008, is a modern dance company based in New York City, founded by Artistic Director Jessica Chen. The company explores how we perceive and create identities within the collective human experience through innovative and culturally-based dance works.
JCP has given scholarships to over 20 pre-professional dancers to participate in our Mentorship Program and partnered with a New York City theater to produce an annual Choreographers’ Festival that has presented nearly 60 emerging to mid-career choreographers. JCP has received commissions to teach and perform at 28 universities and performing arts venues across the U.S.
