Art, Not Apart is an annual Australian Art Fair held in Canberra, providing an opportunity for artists to display their works and connect with the community.[3][4]

The Art, Not Apart festival features markets along with the art of local and interstate visual artists, along with panel discussions and musical performances.[5][6][7][8] The festival producer, David Caffery, told media that in producing Art Not Apart, he is consciously trying not to copy other events.[9]

The first Art, Not Apart was held in New Acton in 2011.[10] Since the construction of the pop-up Westside shipping container precinct, the festival has grown to also include Westside Acton Park.[11]
