Print and Illustration Fair at the Towner Gallery, Eastbourne. Sunday 15th October.

Designers' and Makers' Fair will be held at Eastbourne's iconic Towner Gallery. There will be 60 exhibitors showcasing a range of printmaking, artist's books, 20th Century design, ceramics and contemporary crafts. This is an exciting opportunity to see contemporary makers showcasing their latest work in one of Britain's leading galleries.
There will be two exhibition halls. The first hall will be for new printmakers, design collectives, university illustration departments, zines, riso prints, and fresh talent.
The second hall will be for established print makers, mid-century prints and ephemera, fine press 'artists' books, patterned paper, and those artists and publishers who are influenced by the 20th Century artists whose work is celebrated within the Towner collection.
Accompanying the Fair will be a series of engaging talks and behind-the-scenes tours of the Towner.  Hear some of the UK's leading illustrators discuss their work and see behind the scenes of the Towner and its unique collection of 20th Century British Art.
