The Hepworth Wakefield are excited to announce the return of our popular Print Fair, the go-to place to explore all things print, in a new online format.

Taking place over a 16-day period in March, The Hepworth Wakefield Online Print Fair 2021 will celebrate the art of printmaking across our website and social media channels. The fair will feature a programme of talks, demonstrations and curated print selections.

Profiles of artists participating in the Print Fair will be highlighted throughout the two weeks to generate click-throughs to exhibitors' e-commerce platforms for direct sales.

Applications are welcomed from emerging and established UK-based artists, textile designers and illustrators working in screen print, etching, monoprint, giclee, risograph, lithograph, collagraph, linocut, letterpress and other print media. 

Individuals, collectives or galleries may apply.

Exhibitors will each have a dedicated profile page on our website containing a biography, artist/studio images, links to their online shop and a gallery showcasing up to five individual works. 

The Hepworth Wakefield’s social media channels and website  will be used to promote artists through talks, interviews and demonstrations.  All artists are invited to propose additional content for online events. 

Participant profiles go live online on the first day of the event and remain live until the closing date. 

The participation fee is £75 inclusive of VAT to cover our costs.

Media coverage received for previous online fairs included Art Daily, Crafts Council, Elle Decoration, The Guardian, Time Out and Yorkshire Post.
