Welcome to the Virtual Online CAF2020
The UK’s most prestigious Art Fair.
The UK’s favourite artist fair will have plenty in store for everyone, with a curated collection of over 70 British and international artists showcasing over hundreds of pieces of art, including Paintings, Sculpture, Ceramics, Photography and Mixed Media artwork.
Celebrating its ninth year, The Deepbridge Chester Arts Fair is taking place virtually online from Friday 13th November to Sunday 13th December, 2020. Organisers have
worked hard to move the event online using virtual reality technology, in response to the national Covid-19 restrictions. The online event has been made free to the public and been extended to take place over four weeks rather than just a weekend.
Your guide to the Virtual Fair
At the Deepbridge Chester Arts Fair, there are over 100 pieces of artwork available to buy and view. Whether you’re buying a painting to liven up the front room or purchasing a Christmas gift for someone special, there is sure to be something worthy of your investment.
There are no secrets or enigmas when it comes to buying art … if you see something you love and it stirs something inside of you, then it’s probably for you. When starting a collection you don’t need to have a background in art, you simply need to love what you’re collecting and have the means to support it.
