Our 2017 Hamilton Fringe artists need you- especially the ones from out of town!

Do you have a spare room that you would like to share with a 2017 Fringe artist? Hosting an artist in your home is a fun and interactive way to be a part of the Hamilton Fringe. Get to know an out-of-towner and show them some Hamilton hospitality while they are here!

We'll give you a complimentary Fringe Binge Pass (that's 6 shows) & Backer Button for your kindness. Click on the button below to fill out a Billet Host application. The artists thank you!
