Amant hosts the 2022 Brooklyn Art Book Fair (BKABF).
This year, over 50 vendors from all over the US–some of whom emerging, others more established–participate in-person in a three-day fair that attracts over 3,000 visitors in just 17 hours of public access. BKABF is free to the public and does not charge exhibitors fees, creating non-competitive spaces for independent publishers and artists to flourish, while also providing much-needed support in a field that is not necessarily lucrative. Now in its sixth year, BKABF has become an inspiration that a book fair can support its vendors, rather than burdening them with the costs of production.
The fair is open on Friday July 15, 6:00-9:00pm and on July 16-17, 11:00am-6:00pm
