Laithwaite's renews Affordable Art Fair sponsorship

Laithwaite's Wine has renewed its sponsorship of the Affordable Art Fair in London.

Laithwaite's Wine has renewed its sponsorship of the Affordable Art Fair in London.

Laithwaite's will be the exclusive wine merchant at the events in Battersea Park (March 7-10) and Hampstead (June 13-16) where it will give out samples as well as selling wine. It first sponsored the Affordable Art Fair, which sells contemporary art for £40 to £4,000, last year.

New for this year it is setting up a interractive photo-booth for the charity private view on March 6. It will also be encouraging visitors to tweet about their favourite wines using the #MyWine hashtag.

"I love the Affordable Art Fair's unstuffy and vibrant approach to art. This is just the way we approach wine, which like art can occasionally find itself cordoned off to consumers by critics and prohibitive prices.


"When Tony started the company his aim was pure and simple: bring back as much good quality Bordeaux wine as he could to the UK and sell it direct to consumers at affordable prices. Like the guys behind the Affordable Art Fair, Laithwaite's has never found beauty and affordability to be mutually exclusive," said Laithewaite's managing director Glenn Caton.

Laithwaite's also sponsors England Cricket, The Henley Literary Festival and Classic FM Live.
