ABOUT APP CAMP
APP Camp 十年回歸,串聯中部文化場域,探索藝術與地方的深層連結


由台灣、日本、韓國、澳洲等民間單位與獨立製作人共同發起的「亞洲製作人平台工作營」(Asian Producers’ Platform Camp,APP Camp),以探索亞洲藝術文化地景、推動表演藝術製作的創意實踐、促進跨文化交流,並培育藝術領導者為核心目標。睽違十年再度於台灣及日本沖繩舉辦,為亞太表演藝術界的重要盛事。
今年活動吸引來自亞太多國超過60位製作人參與,並透過多個研究小組(Group Research)分別走訪高雄、台南、台中、彰化與台東等城市,以不同主題進行田野調查與深度交流。其中,「中部田調小組」由「藝術報國」獨立策劃,帶領11位製作人,以「藝文棲地的探求」為核心命題,走訪台中及周邊藝文空間,探索藝術與地方、環境的多重連結。藉由這項田調規劃,自然促進資訊交流與文化實踐,並開啟多項合作契機。
11 位製作人來自澳洲、南韓、泰國、印度、紐西蘭、菲律賓、日本、新加坡、越南,涵蓋跨文化合作、公共空間藝術、表演藝術策劃、劇場製作、觀眾發展、社群連結、青年培力、跨領域合作與國際交流,展現多元策劃與文化實踐能力,並在國際藝文網絡中具有豐富經驗與專業影響力。
中部田調小組走訪臺中國家歌劇院、毛刺、中城再生文化協會、鹿港今秋藝術節等機構與場域,觀察公立場館專業推動、獨立空間的實驗精神、地方創生的文化實踐,呈現中部藝文生態的韌性與創造力。
除田調行程外,11 月 25 日於「藝術報國基地」舉辦交流活動,並由臺中市政府文化局贊助茶會餐點,現場氣氛熱絡溫馨。「藝術報國」邀集中部團隊與 APP Camp 參與者面對面分享,包括「時間藝術工作室」、「20%實驗劇坊」、「狂夢藝術」、「日日製作舞團」、「聲舞團」,探討如何在有限資源下,實踐非傳統場域的創作與演出。本次交流會亦有臺中國家歌劇院、臺中市立美術館、未然空間等代表出席,展現民間力量與公部門協力的氛圍。
藝術報國相信,藝術是連結地方與世界的橋樑。透過創作,我們探索文化多樣性,回應社會議題,並推動跨域合作與國際交流,讓藝術成為公共對話與文化創新的力量。藉由 APP Camp 的國際交流,亞太製作人深入中台灣,探索城市文化生命力,促進跨域合作,為表演藝術注入新能量,開啟更多合作可能。

APP Camp Returns to Taiwan After a Decade, Exploring the Diversity and Creativity of Central Taiwan’s Arts Ecosystem
2025/11/25-26, Taichung, Taiwan
The Asian Producers’ Platform Camp (APP Camp)—initiated by independent producers and organizations from Taiwan, Japan, Korea, and Australia—aims to explore Asia’s cultural landscape, foster creative practices in performing arts production, promote cross-cultural exchange, and cultivate future arts leaders. After a decade, this significant event for the Asia-Pacific performing arts community returns to Taiwan and Okinawa, Japan.
This year’s program attracted over 60 producers from across the Asia-Pacific region. Through multiple Group Research teams, participants conducted field studies and in-depth exchanges in cities including Kaohsiung, Tainan, Taichung, Changhua, and Taitung, each focusing on different themes. Among them, the Central Taiwan Research Group, curated by Ars Association, led 11 producers under the theme “In Pursuit of a Place Where Art Can Dwell” to visit arts spaces in Taichung and its surroundings, investigating the multifaceted connections between art, community, and environment. This initiative naturally fostered knowledge exchange, cultural engagement, and opened doors for future collaborations.
The 11 producers hail from Australia, South Korea, Thailand, India, New Zealand, the Philippines, Japan, Singapore, and Vietnam, bringing expertise in cross-cultural collaboration, public art in shared spaces, performing arts curation, theater production, audience development, community engagement, youth empowerment, interdisciplinary projects, and international networking. Their diverse planning and cultural practices reflect strong professional influence and rich experience within global arts networks.
The Central Taiwan group visited National Taichung Theater, Glitch, Downtown Renaissance Association, and Lukang Arts Festival, observing efforts by public institutions to advance professional development in the arts sector, the experimental spirit of independent spaces, and cultural practices in local revitalization—showcasing the resilience and creativity of the region’s arts ecosystem.
Beyond the research itinerary, an exchange event was held on November 25 at Ars Association Base, sponsored by the Taichung City Government Cultural Affairs Bureau, featuring a warm and lively gathering. Ars Association invited local artists and APP Camp participants for face-to-face sharing, including TimeArt Studio, 20% Experimental Theatre, Lit Art, Daily Production Dance Company, and S. Dance, discussing how to break boundaries and challenge creative practices in non-traditional spaces under the resource constraints of today’s environment. Representatives from National Taichung Theater, Taichung Museum of Fine Arts, and Mizen Space also attended, highlighting the collaborative spirit between grassroots initiatives and public institutions.
Ars Association believes that art is a bridge connecting local communities and the world. Through creation, we explore cultural diversity, respond to social issues, and promote interdisciplinary collaboration and international exchange—making art a force for public dialogue and cultural innovation. Through APP Camp’s international engagement, Asia-Pacific producers delved into Central Taiwan’s cultural vitality, fostering cross-sector partnerships and injecting new energy into performing arts, paving the way for future collaborations.
