LOS ANGELES ART FAIR GUIDE


Welcome to the Los Angeles Art Fair Guide — your comprehensive resource for upcoming art fairs in LA and Southern California. As one of the world's premier art cities, Los Angeles has become a major destination for contemporary art and art fairs. This guide highlights current and upcoming fairs, including details on dates, locations, ticketing, special events, and featured exhibitors. Listings are regularly updated as new information becomes available — especially as fair dates approach — so be sure to refresh your browser often. You'll also find information about other art fairs across California, including those in Palm Springs and San Francisco.

Over the past few years, art fairs have become major attractions, with galleries and collectors flying in from around the world to attend them. They've become financially important to both the participating galleries and the communities that host them. Some art fairs, like Frieze and Art Basel, are large-scale international events featuring many of the world's top galleries. Others, like the LA Art Show and Felix, are more regionally focused. There are also fairs dedicated to emerging galleries, curators, and artists, such as The Other Art Fair and Spring/Break Art Show. All of these fairs offer incredible artwork and visual excitement—so plan to attend and experience them for yourself.

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.
