Taking place January 23–January 26, 2025, Art Palm Beach is set to return to the Palm Beach County Convention Center in Florida with a full slate of daily programming, featured exhibitions, and dozens of exhibitors hailing from around the world.
“There is a real energy and excitement among international galleries about Art Palm Beach,” said fair Director Kassandra Voyagis. “We’re thrilled to welcome galleries from so many different countries, bringing a truly diverse and exciting range of art and culture to Palm Beach.”
The main event will also see the return of DIVERSEartPB, the fair’s nonprofit endeavor that showcases an evolving program of modern and contemporary art through the lens of local institutions and contemporary working artists, inviting cross-cultural dialogues. The 2025 edition is curated by Marisa Caichiolo, and will feature contributions from institutions ranging from the Boca Raton Museum to the Danubiana Museum, Bratislava, and Culture Nomade, Seoul. Centered on the theme of “The evolving role of museums: Fostering relevance in a changing world,” presentations will home in on the unique and significant expertise of the participating institutions.
And next month, the LA Art Show will return to the Los Angeles Convention Center, with the 2025 edition marking its 30th year in the city. Also helmed by Voyagis, she commented of the forthcoming edition, “We are honored to celebrate our 30th anniversary and, as the longest running art fair in LA, are very proud of the pioneering role we have played in the city’s emergence as a global epicenter of art and culture. Diversity is our strength and LA Art Show 2025 will transcend borders, showcasing the best in contemporary and modern art from around the world while also reflecting the vibrant and multi-cultural fabric of Los Angeles.”
The fair invites visitors to explore more than 100 galleries, museums, and nonprofits, highlighting a dynamic range of global talent. Coinciding with the LA Art Show’s 30th anniversary is the 9th edition of DIVERSEartLA, the Los Angeles iteration of the fair’s non-commercial, educational venture, which, like the Palm Beach edition, will too be curated by Caichiolo. For the 2025 edition of DIVERSEartLA, the event will take a celebratory look back at years past, showcasing the program’s evolution since its inception.
