Founded by gallerists in 1970, Art Basel stages the world's premier art shows for modern and contemporary works, sited in Basel, Miami Beach, Hong Kong, and Paris. Defined by its host city and region, each show is unique, which is reflected in its participating galleries, the artworks on display and the parallel content programming produced in collaboration with the local institutions. In addition to ambitious stands featuring leading galleries from around the globe, each show's singular exhibition sectors and artistic events spotlight the latest developments in the visual arts, offering visitors new ideas, new inspiration and new contacts in the artworld.
When Will Ramsay established the Affordable Art Fair in 1999, his vision was to create a relaxed and welcoming environment in which art-lovers could browse and buy 1,000s of original contemporary paintings, sculptures, photographs and prints.
Fast-forward 25 years and Will’s ethos still holds true; our 16 fairs around the world welcome over 220,000 visitors per year, who can take their pick from a mix of local, national and international galleries showcasing a huge array of artworks by established artists and rising stars, all priced under £7,500/€10,000/$12,000.
We hold fairs in Amsterdam, Austin, Berlin, Boston, Brisbane, Brussels, Hamburg, Hong Kong, London, Melbourne, New York, Singapore, Stockholm, Sydney and Vienna. Each unique fair is the ideal day out with family and friends, filled with a creative smorgasbord of artist performances, innovative talks and tours, hands-on workshops, live music and irresistible restaurants and bars.
In total, over 3.5 million people have visited an Affordable Art Fair, taking home over 550,000 pieces of artwork to loving new homes since our humble beginnings!

The Laguna Beach Festival of Arts is a 501c3 with a mission to promote, produce, and sponsor events and activities that encourage the appreciation, study and performance of the arts. Throughout each year the Festival of Arts sponsors art education and provides art scholarships and grants. Every summer the organization hosts California’s premier open-air fine art show and produces the Pageant of the Masters.
As one of the nation’s oldest and most highly acclaimed juried fine art shows, the Festival of Arts features the artwork of 140 award-winning artists. Patrons can enjoy the work of exhibiting artists, demonstrations and art workshops, daily art tours, live music, special events, dine at on-site restaurants and much more.
The Pageant of the Masters is arguably one of the most unique productions in the entire world. Audiences are amazed and enchanted by ninety minutes of tableaux vivants ("living pictures"), incredibly faithful re-creations of classical and contemporary works of art, with real people posing to look exactly like their counterparts in the original pieces.
