THE 2022 OREGON FRINGE FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES HONORARIUM RECIPIENTS

Each year, the Oregon Fringe Festival awards honoraria to artists whose creative work is boundary- breaking, unconventional, excites discussion, and explores different perspectives of a held position, principle, and/or belief. After very careful thought and consideration, this year’s selections include creative work from a very diverse group of artists.

Gesture , Jade Hails Gesture presents works where movement, choreography, and theatre are the focal point, while music, although still present, takes a supporting role, blurring the lines between music and movement. American percussionist Jade Hails is a dynamic presence on and offstage. Combining theatrics and technical performance in a musical amalgamation, Jade has committed his career to bridging the gap between the arts. Offering his skill set to other artists in ways that utilize their work, Jade curates collaborations based on poetry and literature, as well as visual art and dance. Currently based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Jade performs and teaches in Canada, bringing his insights and methods to the City of Glass.
