NEW YORK ART FAIR GUIDE

BECAUSE THIS GUIDE IS UP YEAR-AROUND WE WILL CONTINUE TO UPDATED IT FROM TIME TO TIME. STAY HEALTHY AND TRY YOUR BEST TO KEEP A POSITIVE ATTITUDE.

Guide to New York art fairs.
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic most if not all New York art fairs have been postponed or cancelled until further notice. Let's all hope that they will be able to continue in the future. They are very important for galleries, collectors, and artists and they are very beneficial for the ecomony. As for this guide it will change little until life gets back to normal. This current guide features primarily art fairs normally scheduled for Armory Week. Advertisements have changed on the right side, however content regarding the art fairs listed have not changed since the Spring of 2020.

The reopening of the United States is underway, and we want you to know that Art-Collecting.com will continue to provide your community with art guides as we have for the past 22 years. We do this because galleries, museums, non-profit art organizations, and artists are important. We urge you to support them whenever possible. COVID-19 is still a dangerous threat, so practice safe distancing, wash your hands and take other protective measures so that we can continue to open our country safely.

We sincerely hope that you, your family and friends will stay healthy during this time. Please take care of yourself, and think about how you might be inspired to help others. Be sure to call any art venues before attempting to visit them.

In this guide you'll find art fair basics and a link to each fair where you can find additional details. We're now including Social Media links to make it easier to see pictures from past art fairs and other information. Also, as we get closer to Armory and Frieze Art Weeks (the two major Spring art fair weeks) we'll likely add additional information. Details like: a description of each fair, the exact location, who's exhibiting, tickets prices, hours, openings and special events. In addition to the art fairs, Manhattan offers some of the best museum and gallery exhibitions in the world. Full listing of museum exhibition near bottom of guide.

The Armory Show is New York City's premier art fair and a leading cultural destination for discovering and collecting the world's most important 20th and 21st century art. It features presentations by leading international galleries, innovative artist commissions, and dynamic public programs. Since its founding in 1994, The Armory Show has served as a nexus for the art world, inspiring dialogue, discovery, and patronage in the visual arts. It was founded by four New York gallerists - Colin de Land, Pat Hearn, Matthew Marks and Paul Morris - who sought a platform to present and promote new voices in the visual arts. In its 25 years, The Armory Show has stayed firm to its mission while establishing itself as an unmissable art event set in the heart of New York City. It has grown over the years and this year presents 178 exhibitors from 31 countries, with 30 galleries being first time exhibitors. They are presenting an expanded curatorial program. The Armory Show is now cashless, and payments at our box office will be processed by credit or debit cards.
