Affordable Art Fair is excited to return in 2024 to Australia’s cultural capital Melbourne. Showcasing a selection of galleries from across Australia, the fair will feature a mixture of emerging to established artists. Whether you’re a lover of landscapes, smitten with sculpture or an adorer of abstracts, we’re sure you’ll find something to suit your taste, space and spend!
We respectfully acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of Narrm, the Boon Wurrung and Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people of the Kulin Nations, who are the Traditional Owners of the land on which Affordable Art Fair is held and pay our respect to their Elders past and present.

Is Ian Potter Gallery free?
If there are special exhibitions running, there is generally a charge for those. You can still enter the gallery to see everything else and decide on the day if you want to pay for the extra exhibition. Ian Potter and the NGV are an easy walk apart on either side of the Yarra River.
What is the next NGV exhibition in 2024?
In 2024, the NGV will partner with the British Museum to present Pharaoh, a landmark exhibition that celebrates three thousand years of ancient Egyptian art and culture.
