About The nightfair

Welcome to The NightFair, curated events to provide an outlet for gothic and alternative artwork. Aiming to support small businesses and individual artists, both on a local and international level.
Our events consist of Art Markets and Boutiques, held in the South of England. Our events are free to attend for the public, and usually have much higher footfall than comparative events. Being curated events, we have less ‘walk-in’ and higher proportions of visitors attending with the intention of visiting. This means the general atmosphere is also much friendlier and positive.
As curated events, all artist applications are individually reviewed before being accepted. This enables us to ensure we have the finest work across the widest range of mediums and styles, subcultures and representations. We also love hosting artists just starting out, and work really hard to make our events as professional and easy-to-attend as possible.
SELINA ROSE GRAZIA
As part of a research project at university, I acquired a number of skulls and began to experiment with gilding. This progressed to insects, and before long Selina Grazia Art was founded with the express purpose of bringing my 24ct gold insects to the world. Within a year of starting my own business, I established NightFair markets to give others like me a place to buy and sell alternative art.
Some eight years later, Selina Grazia Art is my full time job, alongside running NightFair markets. I exhibit internationally and sell my art worldwide as well as attending events across the UK. I have expanded into teaching entomological pinning techniques, both online and in person.
At a NightFair market I am usually busy with logistics, can be seen jogging between areas to ensure everything is running smoothly behind the scenes. For my art I have one, two or sometimes three tables, filled with preserved insects and butterflies, gilded bumblebees and sometimes live insects for hobbyist keepers from my own pet breeding projects.
