Following a successful 2025 debut that welcomed over 7,500 visitors, the Brooklyn Fine Art Print Fair (BFAPF) is back! The second edition brings over 45 galleries and print publishers to occupy booths in the historic Grand Hall alongside esteemed academic printmaking departments and individual artists from across the country to exhibit on tables in the adjacent Loft.
Introduced with the mandate to expand opportunities for print producers and sellers of all types, the fair continues to push forward on this mission by expanding its definition of “exhibitor” to encompass a broad range of print publishers nationwide. Whereas the fair’s 2025 edition saw New York-based academic printmaking departments, this year will welcome participants from across the country, including the Tyler School of Art & Architecture at Temple University (Pennsylvania) and the University of Utah. The fair will also bring back the opportunity for self-representing artists to exhibit works in the Loft).
