Update: 16/03/20
A statement from The Other Art Fair: 'Nothing is more important to us than the health and safety of our artists, visitors, and staff. After serious consideration, and in light of recent announcements from the CDC and World Health Organization, we regretfully announce the postponement of our Fairs at the start of this year in London, Sydney, L.A, Brooklyn, Dallas, Chicago and Melbourne. ⁣
⁣
We’ll be sharing plans for new dates in the coming days. All ticket holders will have their tickets transferred for future fairs. ⁣
⁣
In the meantime, we hope you stay healthy and safe!⁣’

frankie sends our support to everyone involved in organising TOAF. All new and existing competition entrants will be automatically entered to win tickets for the new date, to be drawn at a later date (TBC).

In a little less than two weeks, Sydney’s artsy types will be getting their fix of new and emerging talent at The Other Art Fair. Precisely 130 independent artists will be showcasing their wonderful works across the weekend, with thousands of pieces priced at $100. That’s a darn good deal in art world terms!

Aside from the opportunity to buy art, there's plenty of fun bits to keep creative minds buzzing across the four-day fair, whether you fancy UV life drawing in a shipping container, taking a squiz at some hand-poked tattooing or getting hands-on with a creative workshop.

If this sounds like your dream weekend, head on over to our competitions page: one lucky winner will score Thursday-night tickets to the fair, as well as a 12-month frankie subscription and a whole stack of other rad prizes, which you can find below. All you'll need to do is tell us (in 25 words or less) who you’d like to treat to an art-filled day and night in Sydney.

Here's all of the goodies on offer:

- 2 x VIP tickets to the Private View of The Other Art Fair Sydney on Thursday, 19 March
- $200 to spend on art at the event
- Complimentary drinks between 5-6pm at The Other Art Fair Bar
- An overnight stay for two Ovolo Hotel Woolloomooloo
- A 12 month subscription to frankie
 
The lovely folk at The Other Art Fair are also giving away a pair of Friday, Saturday or Sunday tickets to 20 runners up! How neat is that?

The competition closes on Thursday March 12th at 11:59pm and the winners will be notified on Friday March 13th.

The Other Art Fair runs at The Cutaway at Barangaroo in Sydney between 19-22 March 2020.
