Founded by artists for artists in 2003, Renegade was the first event of its kind, and today has built a grassroots movement across the U.S. and beyond.

Our mission is to create vibrant platforms for creatives to gather, grow, and thrive.

Over the past two decades, this mission has allowed us to establish thriving marketplaces in Chicago, Brooklyn, San Francisco, Los Angeles, New York and Seattle, and host events in Portland, Austin, Detroit, Denver, Boston, Miami, and London along the way.

Renegade has become a testament to the whole being bigger than the sum of its parts ~ we cherish our thoughtful, welcoming, and creative community, and look forward to continuing to evolve in the years to come.
