We are proud to announce that Crestar School of Dance has received a sponsorship from Japanese Chamber of Commerce and Industry (JCCI) Singapore Foundation for our annual dance concert 2026.

Established in May 1990, the Foundation’s mission is to support the development of arts, culture, sports, and education in Singapore, while fostering harmonious ties between Singapore and Japan. Through its sponsorships, the Foundation contributes to cultural and social growth, encouraging organisations like ours to continue nurturing creativity and talent.

Crestar School of Dance has long shared a close relationship with Japanese organisations, built on a shared commitment to quality, innovation, and cultural exchange. Since 2003, we have been partnering with JACPA, Japan’s largest preschool physical education organisation, to introduce Rhythmic Gymnastics Programmes in Singapore. This collaboration continues to strengthen cross‑cultural understanding and enrich our students’ learning experiences.

The JCCI Foundation’s generous support will go towards bringing The Magical Travel Ticket—our 2026 annual Crestar School of Dance concert—to life. Inspired by iconic destinations across Japan, this whimsical production invites audiences to journey through the country’s vibrant culture and timeless traditions through dance.

As with every year, the concert will also feature a special Rhythmic Gymnastics performance by JACPA. The 2026 production holds added significance, coinciding with JACPA’s 20th anniversary in Singapore and the 60th anniversary of Singapore–Japan diplomatic relations. It is a meaningful opportunity to honour the longstanding partnership between Crestar School of Dance, JACPA, and the Japanese community.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to the JCCI Singapore Foundation for their invaluable support, which enables our students, parents, and the wider community to enjoy a rich and meaningful artistic and cultural experience.
