ART NOW FAIR 2026

Unit/08 is a striking warehouse space with an industrial look and feel located in Peckham’s vibrant cultural quarter. It is flooded with natural light and features whitewashed brick walls, painted columns and an exposed steel truss roof. With over 11,700 sq. ft of open space, it’s the perfect blank canvas for Exhibit Here’s returning Art Now Fair, and with previous clients such as Netflix, Nike, Adidas, Chanel, Sky and the BBC, it is a space not to be missed.

The venue is situated within the heart of Copeland Park, which is also home to the iconic Bussey Building and Copeland Gallery. This collection of historic structures has been transformed into a thriving creative community, housing over 150 diverse businesses, making this the ideal place for your art to be seen.
