The LA ART Show long recognized as the kickoff for the LA art season each February, for 2021, has been rescheduled to run from July 29 to August 1st, at its home in the Los Angeles Convention Center.
For over 25 years, the fair has been the most comprehensive international contemporary art show in America, honoring the unique creativity that can only come from the cultural landscape of Southern California.

In a time when most in-person gatherings have been cancelled and the global art world is suffering, LAAS is determined to bring the community together and stimulate the economy of the local art scene. The schedule has been altered to serve as a signal we are slowly getting back to normal, while ensuring maximum safety for attendees in the midst of COVID-19.
“Now more than ever, we need a physical art fair in Los Angeles to bring the creative community back together,” says LA Art Show producer and director Kassandra Voyagis. “2020 has been such a challenging year for everyone, and even though things won’t be how they were before, we can’t let 2021 go by without having an art fair in the city. Our community needs something to look forward to.”
This is Voyagis’ first year as the producer of the LA Art Show (she previously served as the fair’s executive director), and she is working tirelessly with local officials to produce an event that is rewarding for the local art community while being safe for everyone to attend. In order to maintain social distancing while still allowing time for everyone to attend, booths will be greatly spaced out in the fair’s 200,000 square feet of exhibition space.

A number of new and returning galleries from around the world have signed up to be a part of the fair in this new format. St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is returning as our charity partner for the opening night reception. More programming information will be released as it’s confirmed.
