Celebrating the creativity of people with a lived experience of mental health. Promoting the benefits of creativity and conection for mental health & wellbeing.

The festival would not be possible without the support of many generous local people and businesses over the years.  The Blue Mountains City Council has also been a long time supporter of the Festival and recognises the important cultural role the event plays in our community and in generating positive conversations around mental health.

The Blue Fringe Art and Literature Committee acknowledges the Dharug and Gundungurra Peoples as the traditional owners of the land on which we create, connect and share.
