About Us

Brighton Art Fair is run by artist Sarah Young and organiser Jon Tutton, they also organise MADE11 - Brighton's Design and Craft Fair and the Palace Art Fair at Fulham Palace.

Brighton Art Fair is now 7 years old and is firmly established as a major annual event in the arts calendar of the South East. It is the largest art exhibition on the South Coast and brings together about 130 of the most talented national painters, printmakers, photographers and sculptors along with artist groups and Sussex based galleries.

Around 5000 visitors visit Brighton Art Fair each year. Many of the visitors enjoy talking and buying directly from the artists themselves, learning more about their artwork, techniques and interests. Every visitor receives a catalogue detailing the exhibitors at the fair which we hope encourages buyers to contact artists after the event to buy or commission work and establish a longer term on-going relationship.

Sales of artwork have been healthy for exhibiting artists. BAF also directly targets art buyers, collectors, gallery owners, arts commissioners and exhibition curators and many artists have been taken up by galleries throughout England due to contacts made at the fair. 

Design and Craft 

2006 saw the launch of the Brighton Craft Fair featuring the best makers and designers in the country. In 2008 Brighton Craft Fair became MADE 08 - Brighton's Design and Craft Fair to reflect the cutting edge design skills of many of our present makers and to attract other designers.

Palace Art Fair

In 2010 we launched a new event in London at Fulham Palace - the Palace Art Fair.

We organised this event to build on what people like about Brighton Art Fair, in terms of quality, size and friendliness, transferred to a new venue. We were delighted by the success of the first show and look forward to the second Palace Art Fair in 2011.
