2008 Capital Fringe Festival Web site launches


The 2008 Capital Fringe Festival, Washington DC's premier performing arts festival, launched its Web site this week. Carousel30 worked with Capital Fringe to create a Web site based on a Content Management System that both adequately conveys the spirit of the organization and allows them to easily update the content on the site themselves.

The Content Management System helps Capital Fringe Festival manage the following:
  • Banner ad serving
  • An artist login section, where performers can log in to see specific information.
  • All content on the Web site

About Capital Fringe

The mission of Capital Fringe, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, is to connect exploratory artists with adventurous audiences by creating outlets and spaces for creative, cutting-edge, and contemporary performance in the District.

Fringe consists of a small and dedicated staff, a committed 9-member board, 30 venue owner/operators, more than 200 artists groups, hundreds of volunteers, and more than 20,000 audience members. It takes all of these to create the July explosion that is the Capital Fringe Festival. The uniqueness, variety, and accessibility of Fringe Festival performances challenge existing arts audiences and attracts non-traditional audiences to the performing arts. By connecting these audiences and artists in a dynamic and exciting way over a relatively short period of time each year, the Fringe encourages the economic growth and social well-being of the city and is a major contributor to the cultural life and character of District of Columbia. Capital Fringe was awarded the Mayors Arts Award for Innovation in the Arts in 2007. Also, the Momentum Award from the Downtown DC BID.
