About the client
Affordable Art Fair is a global contemporary art fair brand founded in London in 1999 with a mission to make discovering and collecting original art more accessible, welcoming, and fun. Today, Affordable Art Fair operates around the world, bringing together local, national, and international galleries and welcoming nearly 280,000 visitors annually. I’m Cori Teague, Director of Affordable Art Fair Texas, overseeing our Austin fair as well as the launch of our first Houston edition. We launched Affordable Art Fair Austin in 2024 and have spent the last three editions building the brand, collector audience, gallery relationships, and arts community in Texas. This October, we’re taking the next major step with the inaugural Affordable Art Fair Houston, taking place October 15–18, 2026 at the George R. Brown Convention Center. Houston will bring together 50+ local, national, and international galleries showcasing thousands of original works by emerging and established artists, all priced between $100 and $12,000. Our goal isn’t to make art feel “cheap”—it’s to make good art and the experience of collecting it more approachable. We want someone who has never purchased artwork before to feel just as comfortable walking through our doors as an experienced collector. For Houston specifically, we’re building the brand from the ground up. That means introducing Affordable Art Fair to the city, establishing our voice and visual identity locally, telling the stories of our galleries and artists, and creating content that makes people want to experience the fair and ultimately buy a ticket. The next couple of months are fast-paced, creative, and very hands-on. We’re not just promoting an event—we’re introducing a new art fair to one of the country’s most established arts communities and building an audience we want to return year after year.
