What to Know
A Defined Price Range
The fair put prices in view, with works ranging from $100 to $12,000. That approach gave first-time buyers and established collectors a clear framework for browsing.
The Exhibitor Mix
The 37th New York edition brought together 78 galleries and work by more than 400 artists. Local exhibitors appeared alongside galleries from elsewhere in the United States and abroad.
Work Under $1,000
The Wonders Under $1000 display gathered lower-priced pieces in one place. Visitors could compare selections without searching the entire fair floor.
Ways to Participate
ROXEHA's Happy Living Wall invited contributions to a collaborative mural. Family Hours, artist conversations, Art After Dark, and advisory sessions added activities beyond buying art.
Support for Emerging Galleries
Warnes Contemporary joined returning fellows Harsh Collective and SHEER. The fellowship gave women-owned New York and Brooklyn galleries a platform within the fair. The official New York fair page carries information on subsequent editions.
