ArtDayME: The Tehran Art Fair launched its first edition, titled “Open Paper,” today, December 4, 2025. The event, which runs through December 12, 2025, is being held at the Institute for the Intellectual Development of Children and Young Adults.

Initiated and organized by the Tehran Art Galleries Association, this fair is considered the first material-based art fair in the MENA region, with a dedicated focus on artworks created using paper as the primary medium.

More than forty galleries from Tehran and other cities are participating in the event, along with two major professional associations in the visual arts—the Iranian Illustrators Society and the Iranian Graphic Designers Society—as well as several publishers and studios active in the field of paper-based arts.

On the opening day of the Tehran Art Fair, Hamidreza Shafiei, CEO of Vesta Color, and Navid Eghbali, Head of the Vesta Color Factory, visited the Vesta Color booth.
