The Affordable Art Fair, founded by Will Ramsay in 1999 in London, operates a network of international art fairs that showcase original contemporary works across multiple media. It aims to provide a relaxed, welcoming environment where art lovers can browse and purchase works from a wide range of local, national, and international galleries. The organization is mid-sized and runs 16 fairs worldwide that attract more than 220,000 visitors each year, with works priced under £7,500 / €10,000 / $12,000. Its audience includes casual buyers, art enthusiasts and collectors seeking accessible contemporary art, presenting opportunities to discover both established artists and rising talents. By aggregating a broad catalog and programming such as talks, tours, performances and workshops, the fairs occupy a position in the accessible segment of the contemporary art market and have hosted over 3.5 million visitors and sold more than 550,000 artworks since inception. In February 2025, the company announced a partnership with ArtPlacer NA Inc. to serve as its official art marketing partner for the New York City Spring edition.
