The Other Art Fair Los Angeles

The Other Art Fair, presented by Saatchi Art, returns to Barker Hangar in Santa Monica for its 16th Los Angeles edition from September 24 to 27, 2026. The fair showcases 160 independent artists from 14 countries, with paintings, prints, photography and mixed media, and many of the artists are right there at their booths ready to chat about their work.

New this year is The Other Open: Artist-Designed Mini Golf, three fully playable holes that double as sculptures. Your family can putt through WeHo Neon Diver by Suze Riley, inspired by the famous neon diver at West Hollywood Park, roll past mirrored pools in Isabel Araneda's Reflections of Palm Springs and aim for the flower-topped funnel of Heather Bellino's The Blooming Vortex.

More playful moments are tucked throughout the hangar. Drop a handwritten fortune into Gina Su's giant ceramic fortune cookie and take one left by a stranger, relax in The Fair Lounge with puzzle-packed copies of The Funday Press, and peek into TP Catalog, a cheeky hand-painted restroom installation that riffs on The British Museum.

Children under 12 get in free with a child ticket, making this an easy and affordable way to introduce young art lovers to working artists and maybe even take home their first original piece.
