APPLY NOW FOR YES! ART

"Smashing success, a lively evening filled with music, great conversations and sales for local artists. The art fair was well organised and beautifully curated; championing local artists in a beautiful setting. I had so many opportunities to share the story of my art with locals and made lasting contacts in the industry. Working with artillery has helped build my confidence as an artist and I feel lucky to be part of this community, thank you so much."

Why Participate?

Yes! Art 2025 celebrates fine artists from Waltham Forest, Haringey and East London offering a unique opportunity to present your work to a diverse and engaged audience of potential buyers and art enthusiasts.

You will also benefit from collaborative event promotions with Big Penny Social and inclusion in our artists' directory on the Yes! Art website.

​

For the £100 stall hire fee you will:

  • Pay zero commission on artworks sold

  • Receive a display table (if required)

  • Exhibit alongside a program of performance, creative workshops and demonstrations

  • Have access to a free wrapping station for sold pieces

  • Benefit from artist networking opportunities in the event lead up

​

The majority of stalls will have a footprint of 2.5m wide x 1.5m deep with 6ft trestle table provided if required. Some have a footprint of 2.5m wide x 0.75m deep and are against a wall. Walls can be utilised so long as no drilling and no marks are left. Each stall has space for a browser, cradle or easle as suits you best. If agreed in advance, you are also welcome to bring your own plinths or display stands.

​

Who Can Apply?

The market is open to ALL fine artists.  

​

Yes! Art is for fine artists working in traditional and contemporary art forms including painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, fine art ceramics or fibre art, photography, mixed media and performance. It is not open to designers, craft makers or applied artists working in disciplines such as functional ceramics and textiles, jewellery, furniture or product design. The market is dedicated to showcasing artists whose practice is rooted in conceptual and aesthetic exploration rather than functional or commercial design. Why? Because these opportunities are especially rare. We want to get art in front of an audience.

​​

How to apply?

All fine artists are invited to complete an expression of interest form. This includes a link to your online portfolio, the price range of your work, and an image of an artwork representative of what you plan to exhibit at Yes!Art. 

​

​The deadline for submissions to be considered in the first selection round is Sunday 13 April.

​​

After review, successful applicants will be notified and invited to submit a listings form together with payment.

​

Not-for-Profit Initiative

Yes! Art is a not-for-profit initiative with zero commission taken on artists’ sales ensuring that all artists are fully and rightly rewarded for their efforts. You are invited to show key pieces of work, demonstrate the processes behind its making and fully explore how to advertise your fine arts practice.
