Now in its 4th year, Art Fair East showcases both renowned and up-and-coming artists including pop artist Colin Self, local artist Lucy Loveheart and London art collective East London Printmakers.

Having noticed a gap in the market in the East of England, Norwich based artists Will Teather and Brian Korteling founded Art Fair East in 2015 to provide an art-buying platform in the city.

Mr Korteling said the fair is the perfect place “to buy something truly unique for loved ones at Christmas”.

The fair includes a wide range of aesthetics and art-making techniques including Simon Dry’s debut show “SweetArt”. Mr Dry uses discarded Quality Street wrappers to create nostalgic images of sweets.
