May Brings More Than Flowers: Art Fairs to See in New York
For art enthusiasts and collectors — even seasoned ones — New York City’s art scene can be overwhelming in May.
“The sheer number of possible experiences seems to grow exponentially,” especially art fairs, said Laura Raicovich, former president and executive director of the Queens Museum, who recently helped found the Francis Kite Club, a social club and collective art space in the East Village of Manhattan. “You can’t possibly do it all, so just pick a few things that pique your interest and go from there.”

Three passionate Lancaster based freelance artists, Hannah Corbett, Lidia Ranns, and Julie Evans, are uniting their creative forces to transform the city into a vibrant hub of artistic expression with the expanded Lancaster Art Fair (LAF), running from August 19th to 23rd, 2025.
This year, LAF is evolving into a larger, city wide festival, thanks to their dedicated collaboration and partnerships with established local arts organisations.

On the plane back from Miami, I add up expenses versus income from this year’s Untitled Art Fair. It is our third year here, and our first bust. As a small Midwestern gallery, two major art fairs a year — Untitled in Miami and the Outsider Art Fair in New York — can generate a quarter of our annual income. Even more importantly, they help us develop a national collector base for regional artists. There is no other way to survive.
It is expensive to participate in more selective and carefully curated international fairs, such as Untitled. Our three-walled, 14 x 14-foot space cost $17,400. Housing for the staff, transportation, food, and additional framing rounded out the total to about $30,000.
