Available Works Book Fair

 Available Works Book Fair

Available Works is a fair for books and more, created in partnership with Water Street Associates (WSA) and Wrong Answer. Free and open to the public, Available Works is a book fair curated and produced by SSS. It offers access to a curated selection of rare art books, magazines, and print ephemera from some of the world’s best book and paper dealers.

Available Works debuted during NYFW in September of 2023 at WSA, a newly established cultural hub in NYC. In February of 2024, we opened our second iteration of the fair, doubling the number of sellers and expanding the programming to continue to grow the Available Works community.
