Ryan Stanier, The director of The Other Art Fair said last night that he was absolutely delighted with the grand opening of his event at The Bargehouse on the Southbank. Thousands of people came to see the work of 100 unrepresented artists. For many the highlight of the evening was of course the bonus attraction: Harry & Jasper's 99p art shop (sponsored by Cass Arts). Joffe and Pye's aim is to give everyone who visits the fair the chance to be a collector even if they are down to their last pound coin. The shop has had around 500 happy visitors so far. The last day of the fair is sunday the 27th of November (opening hours 11am to 6pm). For more details visit: http://www.theotherartfair.com/
