The Friends Fair in Austin will host its second edition, with an opening preview on May 7, with public days on May 8–9. Returning to the Loren Hotel Austin, the fair has also increased the number of exhibitors from 10 to 17, and it will take over an entire floor within the Loren.

The first edition launched last year as a collaboration between five Austin–based galleries, four of which will return for this edition, including Martha’s and McLennon Pen Co. That iteration saw over 2,000 visitors to the boutique hotel fair.
