The Affordable Art Fair 2023

Author: Broadsheet August 31, 2023 Duration: 17:04

By creating a platform for buyers to browse and buy artworks at accessible pricepoints, the annual Affordable Art Fair challenges the assumption that the art world has to be intimidating and expensive. This time it’s taking place at the Royal Exhibition Building where Melbournians can shop thousands of artworks from emerging and established artists, priced between $100 and $10,000. Plus, a new 70s inspired outpost for one of Melbourne's most talked-about ice-cream shops.

Every other Tuesday, Broadsheet Melbourne: Around Town offers a quiet moment to step into the city's vibrant current. This isn't about listing events; it's about the people quietly shaping the texture of daily life here. Each conversation pulls back the curtain on a different facet of local culture, from the precise craft behind a neighborhood restaurant's menu to the creative impulse driving a new gallery exhibition or an independent fashion line. You might hear from a chef redefining a classic ingredient, a designer building a sustainable brand, or an artist whose work captures a particular Melbourne mood. The podcast, produced by Broadsheet, moves fluidly between food, art, and society because, in this city, those lines are always blurring. Tuning in feels less like consuming media and more like grabbing a coffee with the most interesting person in the room-the one who can explain not just what's happening, but why it matters to the way we live, work, and gather. It’s for anyone who believes a city's character is built through these countless, thoughtful contributions, one story at a time.
