Explore extraordinary art, meet emerging artists and raise a glass (or two) to curious encounters, as the Other Art Fair returns to Sydney for its spring edition from October 12-15. This four-day fair invites you to enjoy unexpected performances, immersive experiences, art giveaways – and, if you're brave enough, you could even get a fine art stick-and-poke tattoo (just like our arts and culture editor Alannah did in May, check out the video below!).
The world-renowned art fest has been curated for people across the globe to collectively experience art differently. But, imagine less of a pretentious and snobby vibe, and more of a place where art feels accessible and everyone is welcome.

A panel of experts has selected the 130 diverse artists for the fair, providing a platform for emerging talent to showcase and directly sell their work both in person and online. With prices starting from just $100, purchasing a piece isn't going to break the bank.
This spring edition will go down at the Cutaway in Barangaroo, and features art ranging from NFT photography and oversized sculpture to abstract paintings and surreal collage. The artists with works on show will include the likes of Bridget Kelly, Katherine Heald, Kasia Frankowicz and many, many more.
The four-day program also includes create-your-own cartoon workshops, meet and greets with Doctor Robot, a pop-up tattoo parlour, and live DJs.
Early bird tickets just cost $15 (if you buy before October 12). If you want to head along to the opening night (with all its festivities), it's on Thursday, October 12, and tickets will set you back $35. Book your Other Art Fair tickets right here.
