Press Release | Feb 15, 2019
Held Concurrently with the 35th Jackson Hole Fall Arts Festival
Exhibit in Jackson Hole During Height of Art-Buying Season
It’s Where “Aspen Meets Palm Springs”
Aspen, Palm Springs and Jackson Hole are similar art hubs. Cultured, well-moneyed, art savvy, and socially sophisticated, these towns each have similar demographic populations of around 10,000 residents.
Meet the Buyers You Would Not Meet Elsewhere
The inaugural Jackson Hole Fine Art Fair (JHFAF) provides dealers rare access to this elite, and hard-to-reach community of affluent and avid collectors. Exhibiting at the fair is like having your own “pop-up gallery” during the Fall Arts Festival, when all the big art buyers are in town, seeking acquisitions. Chances are, you won’t meet them anywhere else.
Unlike Any Other Fair in the Nation
JHFAF is uniquely different from all other art fairs as it serves the expansive buying tastes of its local community culture. This is the only art fair in the nation where Western, Wildlife and the New West, meets Modern and Contemporary art genres of the 20th and 21st century. This dynamic “conservation” of art genres truly represents the current spectrum of art collecting in America today. As such, many art experts consider JHFAF to be the most innovative new fair in 2019.
Teaming Up with the Venerable National Museum of Wildlife Art as Sponsor to Promote the Fair
JHFAF will be cross-promoting with the museum’s Western Visions charity event, which runs the evenings of Thursday and Friday, after show hours. In addition to the fair’s regular show hours, JHFAF takes “center stage” in the town’s action-packed Fall Arts Festival’s schedule on Saturday, Sept. 14, 6-8pm, with its Harvest Moon ArtFest, which benefits the museum. This innovative art extravaganza is expected to draw a capacity attendance of arts patrons, philanthropists, and general art lovers.
