The Affordable Art Fair: art works, printmaking demos, art talks & children's art workshops

The Affordable Art Fair (AAF) returns for its second stint with a bigger and better line-up! Established in London more than ten years ago to debunk the myth that collecting art is only for the wealthy, AAF is now an annual event in nine major cities around the world and appeals to people from all walks of life by ensuring all contemporary art have a price ceiling. This year's Singapore Fair, on from November 18 to 20, showcases more than 70 galleries from Asia, Australia and Europe. Artworks on display will range between $100 to $10,000, with 75 percent of works under $7,500. Browse thrrough oil paintings, sculptures, photography and mixed-medium. International celebrity artists Takashi Murakami and Damien Hirst will be staged alongside local artists Justin Lee and Genevieve Chua. And because it's an event for the entire family, the Fair will also host activities such as free printmaking demonstrations, talks on contemporary art from Sotheby's Institute of Art and children's workshops by Art Boot Camp. 1 Republic Boulevard, F1 Pit Building. Tickets: $10-$30. www.sistic.com.sg
