The pink-lit marketplace for all things art springs to life after a three-year hiatus. Affordable Art Fair is back at its habitual haunt at the F1 Pit Building from 18 to 20 November 2022 to turn Singapore pink once again.

Whether you’re a beginner art collector or an art connoisseur, the art fair is sure to ignite your creative senses.
Meet the Exhibitors
This year’s fair will showcase thousands of artworks – refreshed daily – from over 600 emerging and established artists. Making a comeback are the fair’s local veteran exhibitors, such as Utterly Art and Redsea Gallery from Singapore. International galleries like Diverso Art Gallery from as far as Peru, Khankhalaev Gallery from Russia, and Omae Gallery from Korea will also be exhibiting their fine line-up of contemporary canvases and pieces. Of course, there’s always room for art, so head over to the Exhibitor’s page to discover all 80 local and international galleries.
To put the ‘Affordable’ in the brand, 75 per cent of the items are priced below S$7,500 and nothing is priced higher than $15,000. Not wanting to burst your banks?
