Time Out says

Calling all avid art collectors and keen aesthetes, it’s almost time to gather up that loose change because the Affordable Art Fair (AAF) is back for another year. 

Set to be bigger, bolder and brighter than ever, the world’s largest art fair will enliven the Royal Exhibition Building with thousands of original works and vivid installations from some of Australia's best boutique galleries.

Running from August 28-31, the Affordable Art Fair has become a cornerstone event in the city’s eclectic arts and culture scene since its debut five years ago. It will allow collectors and art lovers to engage directly with featured artists and gallery owners, as well as browse a selection of landscapes, sculptures and abstract paintings – all priced from $100-$10,000 (and some even available to take home that day!). 

There will also be a spectacular First Nations spotlight, interactive installations and exciting programming that will boast something for everyone.

You can register your interest via the Affordable Art Fair website here.
