The Other Art Fair Los Angeles

Opportunity Description

International Deadline: June 7, 2026 – Now accepting applications for the 16th edition of The Other Art Fair Los Angeles, returning September 24–27, 2026 at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica.

The Other Art Fair is a global gathering of creative thinkers, game changers and pleasure seekers sharing emerging talent and unforgettable experiences.

Set against the backdrop of the world’s biggest cities, each of our fairs is different. We combine boundary-pushing yet always accessible artworks from over 150 independent artists like you, with immersive installations, performances and a few curious encounters. The result is an inspiring, evocative, inclusive and fun event that reframes how art can be perceived and creates lasting connections between artists and art lovers.

Dedicated to representing independent artists since 2011, The Other Art Fair has worked with thousands of artists from more than 30 countries across 10 in-person fairs each year in the UK and US.

BENEFITS
The numbers speak for themselves: at our last Los Angeles edition — our largest ever with 165 exhibitors — 91% of artists made sales, with a median return on investment of 130%. Artists come to sell, and they do. They’re also making connections that serve their art practices well beyond the Fair.

PACKAGE
The Fair package includes a booth at a 4-day in-person event, pre-fair operations, curation and marketing workshops, booth curation feedback, and more. Booths start at 16 linear feet for $2,270. For more information about The Other Art Fair and the application process, visit our Artist Apply page.

Application submission is free and simple at www.theotherartfair.com/la/applications. All submissions are due by June 7th, 2026 and will be reviewed by our selection committee of art world experts on a rolling basis until the end of July. Don’t delay — exhibition booths are limited and will fill quickly!
