Learn2Fringe #Tallinn helps artists to build a sustainable career

Taking place from March 3rd to April 7th, 2025, Learn2Fringe #Tallinn is an educational program that gives artists tools to diversify their financial income in the arts and to build a sustainable career within and outside of the Fringe festival formats. Registration is open until February 3rd, 2025.

Artists will gain a firm understanding how Fringe festivals work and how to get the most out of participating, what to do after Fringe, a solid grounding in budgeting and funding, promotion, brand and marketing strategies that you can tailor to your specific situation as well as an opportunity to pitch to arts patrons who may financially support your show.

Learn2Fringe involves three four-hour group workshops, three individual mentor sessions, and the Pitch to Arts Patrons event.

The program is specifically for Estonian-based artists and free of charge. You will only be considered if you can physically attend the sessions in Tallinn.

The program is a collaboration between Tallinn Fringe, Amsterdam Fringe, Reykjavík Fringe and Gothenburg Fringe festivals.
