From a Friday Late to an art fair with a difference

The Other Art Fair is back! And we've scored you 30% off entry

Here's something different to do this week: discover 150 of the most exciting emerging artists of the moment while sipping free tasters of El Rayo tequila, tapping your feet to incredible DJ sets, and even treating yourself to a new stick and poke tattoo (if you're feeling brave!). This is The Other Art Fair, which returns to east London's Old Truman Brewery on Thursday for four glorious days of creative fun.

The Other Art Fair, which is presented by Saatchi Art, gives you the opportunity to browse and buy original artworks, directly from the people that made them. With affordable artworks, interactive experiences like live portraiture and a mindblowing AI-powered installation that captures visitors' emotions, and the chance to chat to a diverse range of artists, it strives to show that art is for everyone - and that there are many, many different ways to enjoy it.

And the best bit? Londonist readers can discover it all for less this weekend, with 30% off entry between Friday 18 March and Sunday 20 March. Just hit the big blue button and enter the code LONDONIST30 before making your ticket selection to redeem your discount.
