Mission Statement
Scranton Fringe is dedicated to creating a bold, engaging platform for exciting, engaging, thought-provoking, art with minimal risk to artists and audiences alike.
Scranton Fringe is an award-winning arts organization producing innovative work since 2015, dedicated to creating a bold, engaging platform for thought-provoking art while striving to promote Northeastern Pennsylvania as a viable creative environment. Inspired by the world’s largest annual event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, their organization has grown into an incubator of unique creative work centered around the performing arts.
Scranton Fringe proudly produces the annual Scranton Fringe Festival every fall, along with The Big Gay StorySlam: a celebration of LGBTQ+ voices, and numerous year-round programs that entertain, educate, and engage our communities while uplifting the creativity of as many performers, writers, artists and cultural producers.
