About this Event
Art should be fun and accessible!
Now that we’ve drawn you in, we all know that Art Basel is by far the city’s biggest artworld event of the year. We also know that when you invite the artworld to come to Basel –it comes with prestige and bulky price tags!
In the spirit of making Art Basel a little more affordable to everyone, we’ve created the Basel Art Summer Camp: a community-led initiative running parallel to the art week’s festivities. We’re providing a platform for emerging artists to stay in Basel and showcase their work during this art-filled week - and inviting art enthusiasts to immerse themselves in the experience and maybe even purchase the art (which vary in budget ranges).
Picture this: a week-long event featuring eight artists bunking up in a hostel dorm, showcasing their work in the hostel’s walls while having a blast and even hopefully making some sales. Of course, all of this taking place during the iconic art fair week of Art Basel!
We're on a mission to make art more approachable and bring together art lovers and creators in one event. So, join the pARTy and let's make it happen together!
We're covering some of the essential costs with a kickstarter campaign that you can find here.

The festivities will take place at Hyve Hostel in Basel, a cozy hostel located just a 3 minute walk from Basel SBB train station.
