Spike Print Fair is a new contemporary print fair bringing together artists, printmakers, illustrators, designers and small presses from across the UK. Presented by Spike Island and Spike Print Studio in partnership with UWE Bristol School of Arts and Centre for Print Research (CFPR).
Across three days, Spike Island will transform into a vibrant marketplace for original prints, publications and artist editions. Visitors can buy work directly from artists, discover emerging and established practitioners, and explore one of the UK’s most dynamic printmaking communities.
The fair forms part of Spike Island 50, an anniversary programme marking 50 years since Spike Island and Spike Print Studio were founded in 1976. Looking both backwards and forwards, the programme celebrates the organisation’s artist-led origins and ongoing commitment to supporting creative experimentation, artistic communities and access to contemporary art.
Whether you’re an experienced collector, practising artist or simply curious about contemporary print, Spike Print Fair offers a welcoming opportunity to discover and support independent artists and printmakers.
