If you want to spend more time enjoying the art fair and hanging with friends, and less time feeling open-eyed at the variety on offer, check out our helpful top tips to exploring an Affordable Art Fair.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

1. Do your homework<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Before visiting, head over to the fair\u2019s website and check the floor plan. Familiarise yourself with the map and plan your route, to ensure you don\u2019t miss any of your favourite galleries or artists.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

2. Don\u2019t be shy, ask questions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Turn to one of our friendly gallerists \u2013 they love to share what they\u2019ve got on display, tell you more about the artists they represent or have a chat. Got a question? Don\u2019t be afraid to strike up a conversation.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Enjoy yourself<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019ve done your homework (made the notes of what and who you want to see) and your journey\u2019s planned; all that\u2019s missing is to have a good time, AKA the best part! Remember you don\u2019t have to see everything, just what you want to see. Plus, fairs happen over multiple days, so you can always come back for more.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Get involved<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Spend your day exploring art and dip into our programme to get the most out of your visit. Many of our art fairs include an exciting array of talks, tours, workshops, or performance pieces. To make sure you don\u2019t miss anything, remember to check the timetable on the day.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

5. Take a break<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With so much to see, you could be at the art fair for a while. Make sure you take a step back, grab a snack, and enjoy your surroundings. Exploring our fairs should be an exciting experience, not an exhausting one.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

6. Snap away<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Photos of the artwork are encouraged throughout the fair, to help you decide which piece to purchase. Don\u2019t forget to take a photo of the booth number and artwork label \u2013 it\u2019ll save you time when you forget the location of your favourite find.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Choose what you love<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Can\u2019t stop thinking about that perfect piece of art as you walk through the fair? Then you know you\u2019ve found something you love. Have faith in your intuition and buy the artwork that will make you happy every time you see it.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

8. Stay connected<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Our art fairs are the perfect place to keep up to date with galleries and artists and watch them travel around the world at our international fairs. If you have favourites, sign up to their mailing lists, or to keep an eye on our own arty-happenings \u2013 sign up to the newsletter or head over to our Instagram<\/a> and Facebook<\/a> pages for more of the art you love.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
