The Affordable Art Fair is returning to Battersea Park for a Summer Edition Fair from 8-11 July. Showcasing artworks at affordable prices (from £50 - £6,000), the Fair will give art lovers the chance to browse and buy from a curated selection of local, national and international galleries, all under one roof for the first time since March 2020.
This year, new exhibitors will be shaking up the Fair’s existing line-up of established galleries by displaying works from emerging talent and household names. Now in its 22nd year, the Fair is continuing to deliver on its mission to democratise the art world and provide a vital platform for artists and galleries looking to emerge from a year in lockdown.
