The Other Art Fair Dallas Announces Its 2021 In-Person Fair Plans and a Virtual Reality Event Launching in May
SANTA MONICA, Calif., May 20, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Other Art Fair, a leading artist fair for discovering emerging artists, is set to host its next Dallas edition this October 21-24, in-person at the Dallas Market Hall. Following the success of its inaugural Dallas edition in 2019, The Other Art Fair will host over 100 independent artists along with experiential features by Dallas-based artists and creatives.
"We are thrilled to be returning to the Dallas Market Hall this coming Fall for our second edition of The Other Art Fair Dallas," said Ryan Stanier, founder of The Other Art Fair. "We're returning with bigger and bolder features inspired by the energy of the city and special features hosted by some of Dallas' most prominent creatives and voices in the art community, and will begin celebrating the Dallas artist community with the launch of our Virtual Reality program in May."
The Other Art Fair Dallas will also introduce New Futures, an initiative developed to champion the works of up-and-coming and underrepresented artists from the art fair's local community. The New Futures winners will represent the next generation of Dallas-based emerging artists showing great promise at the beginning of their careers and will present their work at the in-person fair this Fall. Applications are currently open for Dallas-based artists.
Ahead of the in-person event later this Fall, The Other Art Fair will introduce its Dallas Virtual Edition of the fair May 25-30. This virtual reality fair program is an interactive shopping experience for art buyers looking to discover new emerging artists and access a robust collection of Texas-based artists, along with compelling content from Dallas-based creatives and arts organizations.
