The Other Art Fair, presented by Saatchi Art, returns to Los Angeles for its 14th edition and largest fair to date, featuring more than 150 independent artists from across the globe. Taking place from September 25 to 28, 2025, at the iconic Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, the fair will showcase a dynamic mix of contemporary art, immersive installations, live performances, interactive experiences, and family-friendly activities, making art collecting accessible, affordable, and enjoyable for everyone.
Visitors will find curated collections of artworks priced from under $200 to $2,000, along with vital and exciting programming designed to make art collecting both inspiring and approachable.
In addition to the exhibiting artists, the fair will present THE DREAD SPA, a cleanse for the soul offering visitors respite from daily life and a chakra tune-up through a series of immersive and restorative experiences. Highlights include Auditory Odyssey, an immersive sound bath by Allison Bagg that transforms sound into a sanctuary; The Karmacy 2.0, a playful installation of karmic exchanges; and personalized offerings such as Animal Guide Oracle Readings by Alycia Shiann and Aura Portraits by Mad Watson.
Visitors can also step into The Salon Carré, an art parlor created by still-life photographer Heather Allison and Melissa Johnson of Miss Havisham’s Curiosities, inspired by 18th-century Parisian salons. The salon will feature one-of-a-kind objects and complimentary tea leaf readings on Sunday, September 28.
Together, these experiences invite guests to pause, connect, and reflect all in the company of The Other Art Fair’s singular artists.
Opening Night on Thursday, September 25, will kick off with DJ Phatrick spinning. Additionally, all guests aged 21 and older will receive a complimentary whisky cocktail courtesy of Balcones Distilling.
