July: AIT@40 Arts, Culture, and Sports Month: We’re counting down our AIT@40 highlights month by month as we approach our AIT@40 finale! To celebrate AIT’s 40th birthday, we selected a special theme for each month in 2019 to highlight our joint accomplishments in that area. JULY was AIT@40 Arts, Culture, and Sports Month. As part of the Women’s Basketball Sports Envoy program, AIT hosted coaches from American universities to work with Taiwanese women’s high school and college teams and hold a sports camp for aboriginal and disadvantaged youth. AIT also welcome the Carnegie Hall National Youth Jazz Orchestra for unforgettable performances, and screened “Chasing Trane,” a film about legendary jazz musician John Coltrane, from the American Film Showcase.
