After seven short years, Hollywood Fringe Festival has managed to garner what venerable Edinburgh Fringe (founded in 1947) has not accomplished in 69 years: financial recognition from the government. In its second round of arts grants for fiscal year 2016, National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) is giving Hollywood Fringe an Art Works grant of $10,000 to support the growth of Fringe Scholarship programs. Festival Director Ben Hill commented, “This funding allows us to sustain that growth by supporting artists and programming that is diverse, inclusive, and relevant to the local community. We are truly honored to have been selected a recipient.”
