Within Battersea Park the Affordable Art Fair offers lots of activities for all of the family. This year's theme is 'Food, Glorious Food' for which Katie Rand - artist in residence, will be building a fruit pastille installation - the kids can participate in cultural, arty pastimes (not scoff the sweets) whilst you get to do such a worthwhile thing as looking for that perfect art piece for that particular space.
The fair specifically highlights gorgeous pieces for under £3000 so it's hopeful you'll find something that you might afford. With free demonstrations, talks and workshops the day will be gone before you know it - perhaps you'll need 2 days to do it justice!
There's a free creche to leave the kids in for an hour - no booking necessary - it's first come, first left!
Kids under 16 go free. An adults weekend day ticket is £12 if purchased in advance, otherwise £15 on the day.
