Visual Fringe is the visual art portion of the Orlando International Fringe Theatre Festival that features drawing, painting, sculpture, design, jewelry making, and much more.
Like the theater portion of the festival, Visual Fringe is uncensored and unjuried and 100% of the money made in art sales is given back to the artists. The main focus of Visual Fringe is to allow an outlet for artists to push beyond their usual medium, subject matter, and comfort zone to bring true uniqueness to this exhibition, and foster the celebration of creativity.
Make sure to check out our gallery, art market, workshops, classes, crafts, demonstrations, selfie backdrops, and events located in the halls and in VF HQ (a wonderful, artistic place for anyone to hang out). They are for artists and art lovers alike!
Anything you see hanging on the walls or on pedestals throughout the festival grounds – be it paintings, drawings, photographs, ceramics, or jewelry – is part of Visual Fringe and it is for sale! (Remember, 100% of the money made goes back to the artists.)
Since Visual Fringe is entirely unjuried and uncensored, everyone is welcome to enter their work, whether it is their first piece or their millionth piece. Join us!
