Event History
Set amidst the world’s major cities, each fair is distinctive, blending avant-garde yet approachable works from 140+ independent artists, along with immersive installations, performances, and intriguing encounters. This yields an inspiring, evocative, inclusive, and enjoyable event, reshaping perceptions of art and fostering enduring connections between artists and art enthusiasts.
Dedicated to championing independent artists since 2011, The Other Art Fair has collaborated with 3,000+ artists from 20+ countries, hosting 12 annual in-person fairs across the UK, US, and Australia.
The Other Art Fair is a global gathering of creative thinkers, game changers and pleasure seekers sharing emerging talent and unforgettable experiences.
Set against the backdrop of the world’s biggest cities, each of our fairs is different. We combine boundary-pushing yet always accessible artworks from over 100 independent artists like you, with immersive installations, performances and a few curious encounters. The result is an inspiring, evocative, inclusive and fun event that reframes how art can be perceived and creates lasting connections between artists and art lovers.
We are excited to officially announce the alignment of our fair dates with L.A. Art Week, at a venue nestled in the heart of L.A.'s eastside creative community, where Silverlake meets Glendale. This is the first time the Los Angeles edition of The Other Art Fair will coincide with frieze Los Angeles, Felix Art Fair, spring/break art fair, and the L.A. Art Show. Our fair is uniquely positioned to capture the enthusiasm of L.A's art buyers who will be out in force celebrating and looking to bring home art they love and that they can afford.
The Fair package encompasses a booth at the 4-day in-person event (February 20-23, 2025), pre-fair workshops, marketing sessions, booth curation feedback, and more. Fees begin at $2,250. Explore www.theotherartfair.com/artists-apply/ for details on The Other Art Fair and the application process.
