The Oregon Fringe Festival Announces 10th Anniversary Festival Dates! Hip, Hip, Hooray! Ashland, OR | October 2022 | Press Release

T his year marks the 10th Anniversary of the Oregon Fringe Festival and we are so grateful to those who have helped make it possible. Initially beginning as a group of students who were interested in presenting late night theatre, has now evolved into a multi-day event that embraces outrageous creativity in all of its forms. Through the incredible relationships that we have developed with the Oregon Center for the Arts at Southern Oregon University and our wonderful Fringe Community, we are just getting started and cannot wait to continue providing a boundary-breaking platform for free expression that celebrates unconventional art and unconventional space. The 10th Anniversary Festival will take place both live and online from Wednesday, April 26 - Sunday, April 30, 2023. While applications to present creative work haven’t been released quite yet, updates and more information can be found on our website by clicking here or visiting www. oregonfringefestival.org. About the Oregon Fringe Festival: Each spring, the Oregon Center for the Arts at Southern Oregon University produces the Oregon Fringe Festival, a multi-day event celebrating bold, innovative, and outrageous creativity in the arts. The festival is first and foremost a crossroads for emerging artists and professional practitioners to engage with each other’s creative work. Our roster includes music, theatre, visual art, film, physical theatre, dance, circus, spoken word, and more, as well as panels and workshops for students and the greater community. Now in its tenth year, the Oregon Fringe Festival is aligned with the rich history of The Fringe, an international movement exploring our innate creative spirit.

The Oregon Fringe Festival is committed to providing a boundary-breaking platform for free expression that amplifies the voices of those who are all too unrepresented in the creative arts industry. A lens focusing on equity, diversity, and inclusion will filter our selection process for all applications that are submitted. Individuals with disabilities are encouraged to participate. If you are a person with a disability who requires accommodation(s) in order to participate in this festival, then please contact Disability Resources at DSS@sou.edu in advance.
