“Our unwavering mission is to inspire people around the world with art and we are thrilled to be bringing the magic of Affordable Art Fair to Sydney.

This winter, the Fair will provide the perfect opportunity for Sydneysiders to discover thousands of new artists and consult with expert galleries conveniently under one roof,” said Fair Director, Stephanie Kelly Gordine.

Showcasing artists from across the country and around the world, the illustrious gallery line up will include Sydney favourites Studio Gallery, Rochfort Gallery, Harvey Galleries, Wentworth Galleries, and Fern Street Gallery, with The Toowoomba Gallery from Queensland.

Helping to springboard the careers of emerging artists, the NSW Young Talent program will offer five local artists under the age of 35 the chance to exhibit and sell new works to an excited and engaged audience. Official charity partner, Studio A, will also present a stunning curation of art with 100% of proceeds helping the organisation pave professional pathways for creatives with intellectual disabilities. The full program of galleries will be available on the Affordable Art Fair website from April 2022.

Alongside the captivating collection of artworks, guided tours with the Fair Director will be available each day detailing top picks for every budget.
