Announcement Regarding Holding 3331 ART FAIR 2020

In light of the current social situation, the organizers have decided to change the public format of the fair to a limited complete reservation only viewing. Moreover, with alterations to the venue layout and operational methods, the “Art Fair 2020 Committee” now serves as the organizers of the 3331 ART FAIR.

The decision was made upon the organizers’ careful consideration of all the possible options besides the art fair format to hold a space for artists to share their expressions, such as online exhibition/sales, etc.

With these changes to our event, we are greatly sorry to all those who were eager to attend, including visitors, cooperating galleries, artists, as well as all businesses and organizations offering their sponsorship, support, and partnership.

Please find the current details of the event below.

We greatly appreciate your understanding and continued support in our art fair.

[Alterations to the Event]

1) Limitation on Visitor Numbers
The venue will be closed to the general public in order to precisely monitor the number of people within the venue (including staff and artists), in avoidance of large numbers of people gathering in one location. Visitors will be limited to those interested in purchasing artwork upon making a reservation in advance. The organizers will ensure that within the 1F Main Gallery as its venue (approx. 600 ㎡), the number of visitors will be limited to a maximum of 70 people per 2 hours. There will be close monitoring of the venue to allow 3 m x 3 m square space (area of 9㎡) per single viewer.

2) Admission Fee
The admission fee will be reduced from the former ¥2,300 (including tax) to ¥1,500 (including tax). *Advance tickets by reservation: ¥1, 000 (including tax)

[Advance Tickets Purchased through ArtSticker by 3/12]
The complete fee will be refunded to the purchaser. The office will contact purchasers individually on details of the refund method.

3) Venue Entry
All entry to the venue will be made through prior reservation in order to limit the number of visitors. The details and method of reservation will be announced shortly on the 3331 ART FAIR 2020 website and other media. *Reservations for entry tickets (noted with visit time regulation) are set to begin on March 13 (Fri) at 15:00.

4) Hours of Entry
The entry hours will be changed to:
March 18 (Wed) 14:00 – 20:00 *Invitation only (those with an invitation envelope received for 3331 ART FAIR 2020)
March 19 (Thu) – March 21 (Sat) 12:00 – 19:00 *Entry by prior reservation and limited number of visitors
March 22 (Sun) 12:00 – 18:30 *Entry by prior reservation and limited number of visitors

5) Cancelation of Gallery, Organization, and University Booths
All exhibition booths held by galleries, organizations, and universities in the 1F Main Gallery and 2F Gymnasium will be canceled. Within a space allotted by numerous walls, there is the risk of many visitors viewing artwork close together. We have decided to take this action given that, even upon limiting the number of visitors, the situation cannot be monitored closely. We offer our deep apologies to all those involved.

6) Venue Change
The selected artists exhibition to be held in the 2F Gymnasium will be moved to the 1F Main Gallery. With alterations to the exhibition layout, the number of temporary walls will be reduced as much as possible in order to allow for constant air circulation throughout the space.
