Below are questions we regularly get asked from both exhibitors and visitors. If you have another question you would like answered please feel free to contact us.
What is the difference between an art exhibition and an art fair?
An art exhibition usually has a theme and takes place within a gallery, whereas an art fair has much more art on offer and tends to be a much more friendly open event where visitors can meet the artists and galleries exhibiting a wide variety of genres and styles.
What kind of artwork will be available to buy at the art fairs?
At each of our Sussex Art Fairs, there are over 100 exhibitors providing art for everyone and catering for all tastes, covering all styles, mediums and genres including; paintings, both contemporary and traditional, photography, digital prints, glass, ceramics and sculptures.
Where do I find a specific artist of gallery?
A full list of exhibiting Galleries and Artists can be seen by clicking the ‘Exhibitors’ link and the A-Z choices in the drop down menu.
What is the average cost of artwork at Sussex Art Fairs?
Prices of art start from as little as £50 for prints and smaller works, to over £5,000 for an outstanding masterpiece, so there will be something to suit every budget. Art buyers’ purchases will be wrapped by our specialist wrapping team ‘artPAKK’ located at the exit.
