A popular Milton Keynes festival is launching a new showcase to give local talent a platform and celebrate creatives across the city.
MK Fringe Festival has announced its latest Digital Showcase, offering artists, performers and creatives the opportunity to become part of the festival's growing programme of independent arts.
The festival is seeking submissions from creatives working across all disciplines, including visual arts, performance, theatre, music, film, spoken word, digital media, installation, photography, dance, design and interdisciplinary practice.
Artists, both emerging and established, are encouraged to share bold ideas and original work that reflects the diversity and creativity of the Milton Keynes community. Projects at various stages of development are welcomed, where appropriate.
