Fellowship Program

Affordable Art Fair New York has opened applications for emerging local galleries to apply for the fair’s Fall 2023 edition. The Fellowship Program invites Greater New York arts organizations founded within the last five years to submit a curatorial proposal to participate free of charge as an exhibitor at the fair. The Fellow will participate alongside over 70 galleries at the fair’s two New York Editions taking place annually in spring and fall. This spring alone, the Affordable Art Fair drew 12,000 visitors and facilitated $4.5 million in sales.

The Affordable Art Fair has long acknowledged that the global art fair market can be cost prohibitive, particularly for emerging artist collectives and galleries. Participation in the Fellowship Program is therefore awarded to arts organizations for which the expense of exhibiting at the Affordable Art Fair is a barrier to entry.
