Despite the pandemic restrictions, last year’s inaugural Kuala Lumpur Art Book Fair (KLABF) at The Godown in Kuala Lumpur maxed out on its ticket allocation (by sheer word-of-mouth networking) and gave the arts venue in the capital one of its year-end highlight events.

This year, the contemporary-minded KLABF returns with an even bigger group of participants, including designers, artists, collectives and independent publishers – all coming under one roof at the same venue The Godown from Dec 2-4.
