LOS ANGELES ART FAIR GUIDE


Los Angeles is now one of the world's premier art cities. It's a great area for contemporary art and it's now become a major art fair destination. This guide features upcoming art fairs and information related to them, plus other visual arts and events going on in the Los Angeles area. Additional art fair details are added when available, usually this happens as the fairs get closer to opening, so refresh your browser often. Basic info on past and distant future fairs is also included near the bottom.

Over the past few years, art fairs have become major attractions with galleries and collectors flying in from around the world to visit them. They've become very important financially to the participating galleries and to the communities where they're located. Some art fairs like Frieze and Art Basel are huge and regularly feature the top galleries in the world. Other are regionally organized and focused like the LA Art Show and Felix, and some fairs are for emerging galleries, curators and artists like The Other Art Fair and Spring Break Art Show. All of the fairs offer amazing artworks and visual stimulation, so plan on attending them.

In addition to the art fairs be sure consider visiting some of the notable gallery and museum exhibitions. Explore around and you'll find gallery openings, artist receptions and special events during art fair week. You can find additional information in our LOS ANGELES GALLERY GUIDE.

Art galleries, museums, non-profit art organizations, and artists are important, please support them when possible. This guide is my effort to support them and to provide you with information. Individuals, galleries and art organization can also help by sharing this site with art friends or posting links in Social Media. Thanks in advance your help is appreciated. Also, if you discover a wonderful exhibition, gallery or art fair because of this guide, don't keep it a secret, tell the organizers and your friends. Get out and enjoy and support the visual arts.

Capitalizing on the city’s position on the Pacific Rim, DIVERSEartLA is a special programming section devoted to nurturing the creative energy of international collectors, artists, curators, museums and non-profits by connecting them directly with audiences in Los Angeles.
