See which pieces were selected for the public collection at Manchester Art Gallery.

A wonderful collection of diverse creativity, that never feels elitist. Some great conversations with the artists and despite being busy, it never fells rushed or crowded. A yearly highlight.

I love the incredible variety of work on show. There are so many pieces with such different things to appreciate. There are always pieces that'll take your breath away.

Manchester Art Fair has become one of the highlights of my year. I feel excited as the date nears and feel emotional when I arrive at the array of artwork, artists, visitors and exhibitors - I feel stimulated, invigorated, all in all I absolutely love it and wouldn't miss it!!! 

Very impressed by the fair, a great collection of contemporary art under one roof. 

I look forward to the art fair every year and I really enjoy seeing the huge range of art in all it forms on offer at all different price points. It is the only art selling event I know of in the north of England to offer such breath and diversity. I also find it very inspiring and up-lifting and I look forward to seeing regular exhibitors but also new artists. 

It's an excellent venue and exciting buzz around the stands. Each artist has there own bias but I would like to see more plein air work especially portraiture. As a frequent visitor to London it's good to see Manchester at least pushing art forward.
