Amrita Performing Arts is a proud member of the newly formed performing arts network Shared Spaces. The network - which has around 20 members from Europe, the US, Asia and Africa - will provide a platform for sharing information about projects among arts practitioners from around the world. Amrita’s Executive Director Fred Frumberg participated in the first official gathering of members in Kinshasa in June 2013 as a component of the Connexion – Kin performing arts festival in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Amrita continues to be an active member of IETM, an international network for contemporary performing arts, and World Dance Alliance.
