Mission:
St Lou Fringe connects cutting edge performing arts with accessible, affordable performances for audiences. St Lou Fringe supports established and emerging artists by providing a professional setting to showcase their work. St Lou Fringe seeks to promote developing neighborhoods as opportune space for creative and economic growth. St Lou Fringe builds community by connecting brave artists with bold audiences.
- St. Lou Fringe seeks to connect brave artists and bold audiences. St. Lou Fringe is a network and place for information sharing that holds to heart the fundamental nature of Fringe: 100% Unjuried, 100% Uncensored, 100% Accessible.
- We celebrate and showcase those artists and audiences annually with the St. Lou Fringe Festival.
St. Lou Fringe is…
- 100% Unjuried. Following the model of other successful Fringe Festivals, we select our participants on a first-come first-served basis.
- 100% Uncensored. Anyone and everyone, from the truly avante-garde to the passionately traditional, may submit their work. STLF does not question, critique, pre-select, or otherwise contrive the content of any submissions.
- 100% Accessible. St. Lou Fringe is dedicated to providing an outlet for all interested performing artists of all backgrounds. STLF will work with the special and exceptional cases of artists and audiences to ensure that every aspect of our community is embraced and served.
- Returns 100% of ticket sales to artists. With the majority going to the on-stage artists, and the rest going to the off-stage artists who made the festival happen, St. Lou Fringe is proud to foster the creative economy.
St. Lou Fringe was incorporated as a non-profit in the state of Missouri in November 2011.
