Join us for the 12th Annual Oregon Fringe Festival! April 24-28, 2024.

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 eleventh year, the Oregon Fringe Festival is aligned with the rich history of The Fringe, an international movement exploring our innate creative spirit.

Mission Statement

The Oregon Fringe Festival is a boundary-breaking platform for free expression. We celebrate unconventional art and unconventional space. We work to secure a tolerant space for the sharing of ideas through the arts.
