Chelsea Art Fair

Chelsea Art Fair brings a very decent standard of contemporary and 20th-century art to the Old Town Hall. For four days 35 galleries offer paintings, prints, drawings, sculptures and ceramics for you to peruse and purchase. There are a few major works on display but prices range from ?200 to ?20,000 and are independently vetted so you can be sure you're paying the approximate market value. Contemporary work predominates, but 20th century pieces - from renowned artists like Laurence Stephen Lowry onwards - are here. Established in 1996 Chelsea Art Fair offers the middle road - nothing too outrageous or demanding, but quality work which will endure the test of time. The Old Town Hall is a pleasant venue in which to admire works of art and is very welcoming to casual browsers and amateur art buyers.
