Fringe Programme 2025
Welcome to the Deptford X Fringe!
The Fringe is the core of the Deptford X Festival. It’s a celebration of the area’s art scene, bringing together artists, artist-led groups, community groups, students, and people new to making artwork.
Over the course of the festival, the Fringe will take over Deptford, placing art in unexpected locations, rooted into the fabric of everyday lives. The full diversity of visual art will be exhibited in public spaces, shopfronts, cafes, market stalls, artist-led galleries, and community and university venues.
Fringe Events
Many Fringe artists will be offering events and workshops alongside their projects. You could enjoy a weaving workshop in Deptford Market Yard, visit a pop-up flea market at Art Hub Studios or join a Zine-led walk around Deptford. See individual Fringe listings for more information or click here for a list of workshops and events which require booking.
