ArtCenter College of Design is pleased to host for the first time Printed Matter’s LA Art Book Fair 2025. The renowned international celebration of art publishing attracts thousands of visitors over four days and features over 300 artists’ book publishers from around the world, including artists and collectives, small presses, institutions, galleries, antiquarian booksellers and distributors. An exciting line-up of programming—lectures, performances, and hands-on workshops—will also be offered as part of the Fair.
During the LA Art Book Fair, ArtCenter will activate many of its own departments and spaces for special programming, including Archetype Press, the Makers Lab, the Library & Archives, the College’s galleries at its South Campus 950 building (950 South Raymond, Pasadena) and more.
Be sure to visit ArtCenter’s Graduate Press, which will be an exhibitor at the Fair. In addition, a number of the school’s alumni will be exhibiting and presenting, including Devin Troy Strother (Coloured Publishing) and Kristofferson San Pablo (Vacancy Projects).
The fair kicks-off with an Opening Night celebration on Thursday, May 15 from 6 pm to 9 pm.
