About the Love Art Fair

Launched in 2012, this year marks the 3rd Love Art Fair. The fair is ground breaking in that it is the only Fine Art Fair in the UK to be held in a shopping centre. This means that exhibitors are guaranteed huge footfall over the 4 day event. The fair is free to enter and families with children are encouraged and catered for. The fair really does make art more available & accessible to a greater range of people than any other we know of. This year's event is 16th to 19th October.

The Venue

The Centre, Milton Keynes is the third largest shopping centre in the UK and has a vast, 60m x 30m promotional space in a prime retailing position within the heart of the centre, right outside a huge John Lewis store. Other retailers immediately adjacent to the site include Next, CafĂ© Nero, Costa Coffee, Pret A Manger,  Mothercare, BHS & WHS.

Who Can Exhibit?

The object of the Love Art Fair is to present a broad and diverse range of art work and price points to reflect the broad and diverse audience it aims to serve. Therefore we invite applications from both galleries and self-representing artists and acceptance is based on merit and stand availability. Experience has proven to us that a good mix of both galleries and artists is what the public respond best to in this unique environment. We do not place restrictions on price points of work offered, preferring to allow the customer to decide on the budget they would like to set when considering a purchase. We do accept Limited Edition work but encourage the sale of original work wherever possible. Open editions are not allowed.

Stand Prices

We believe that our stand prices represent extremely good value for money when compared to any quality Fine Art Fair. Particularly when you consider that as organisers we do not have any income revenue from ticket sales, as entry to the Love Art Fair is completely free. We do accept joint applications from self-representing artists wanting to share a space. There are no additional charges. Lighting & signage is included and you will only need to bring hooks and a hammer to hang your work. Our stand panels are quality laminated MDF and each panel is 1.2m wide by 2.4m tall.

Next Steps...

The Love Art Fair is now becoming well established despite it being set up in the depths of the recession, and now the economy is seeing some improvement we do expect a strong demand for spaces this year. Here is the  FLOOR PLAN & STAND PRICE LIST. To apply for a stand please simply send an email to info@theartcurator.com stating which stand number you would ideally like together with two alternative stand numbers in the event that your first choice is unavailable. It would also be helpful if you include a little information about your gallery and/or your art work. We will then contact you to confirm availability and to ask for further information if required.
