ArtMart

291 ArtMart launch weekend is a 2-day non-stop Art Party Extravaganza with artists, designers, VJ’s, DJ’s, performance artists, new media & more!

ArtMart, an alternative Christmas Sale

291 ArtMart is a chance to snap up artist’s originals, limited editions and multiples, as well as the finest new arrivals from the world of product design, fashion and contemporary furniture.

You will find gleaming supermarket aisles stacked full of high quality goods by well established and up and coming artists/designers all at take away prices. Fill your stockings with a little avant-garde and check out our lifestyle collection offering household and soon to be household names.

Be meeted and greeted by strange but cheerful cashiers, or stalked by our over zealous store detectives and monitored by our bizarre surveillance system and performance artists. You could even be a winner with the golden till receipt or visit that old red devil, Santa in her grotto. After hard shopping, relax with 291’s Christmas cocktails and mince pies. From 9pm till 2am our resident artist DJs will entertain you, all with a backdrop of artists’ film and visuals.
