After a small hiatus, the Other Art Fair is returning to Melbourne and everyone, not just the ‘art crowd’, is invited. The fair features more than 100 emerging and indie artists from Melbourne and beyond, with the aim to reframe what an art fair can look like – geddit?
From January 30 until February 2, the fair invites you to enjoy performances, immersive workshops and unexpected experiences. You can meet the artists, raise a glass (or two) or even get a tattoo during your visit.
If you’ve been before, it’s worth noting that each year promises a fresh batch of artists hocking take-home art for all budgets, across mediums typically including painting, sculpture, installation, photography, digital art and more. This time around, the line-up includes Steve Leadbeater, Katherine Gailer x Lucy Lucy and Simone Thomson.
It’s all happening at the Timber Yard in Port Melbourne – head to the Other Art Fair website for more information and to book tickets, which will cost you $15.76 for a regular session or $42.43 for an opening night ticket which allows complimentary re-entry.
