Visitors  can expect 6,000 original prints and paintings, sculpture, glass and ceramics for all tastes and budgets. Visitors will be able to browse and buy from as little as £100 right up to the more ambitious works of Banksy, Damian Hirst, Tracey Emin, Sir Peter Blake and Bruce McLean. 

This year sees the welcome return of our bi-annual outdoor Sculpture Park showing some 60 works for gardens large and small.  Alison Bevan, Director RWA, The Royal Academy in the West of England highly recommends the event which will have... “Lots of high quality work from some of the country’s leading independent galleries – a great place to build an art collection”

Fresh: Art Fair has shown spectacular growth over the last three years with Cheltenham visitor numbers rising to nearly 6,000 in April 2019 and a very successful Fair at Ascot Racecourse last September. “People are beginning to realise that an art fair is the easiest way to browse and buy art. At Fresh: you can see 50 Galleries in a couple of hours in one convenient place" says founder Eleanor Wardle.

Cheltenham Racecourse is the perfect venue for this event with a huge purposebuilt exhibition hall, two licensed cafés serving hot and cold food, unlimited free parking, Park & Ride connections to the town centre and station and easy access from the M5.

“Once again there’ll be lots going on including talks and artist demonstrations, and our usual game for children. Bonhams will be with us to provide advice and free valuations on any pre-contemporary art you wish to sell. This year we have a demonstration of glass blowing and a sculptor working in the Sculpture Park. A full programme will be published on our website nearer the time” says Eleanor.
