The Atlanta Fringe Festival was conceived in 2010 by a small group of art and theatre lovers.
The festival has attracted performers from all over the United States, including actors, dancers, comedians and aerialists.
In its inaugural year, the Atlanta Fringe Festival received over 40 performance submissions.
AFF is currently accepting submissions for the second annual edition of the festival, slated for June 6–9, 2013.
The topics discussed at the workshops were managing volunteers, producing a show, copyrighting original works, grant writing and corporate funding.
