Damien Hirst and Quentin Blake exhibit alongside inmates from UK Prisons at Hampstead's Affordable Art Fair.
A blind artist who uses Braille dots to create interactive artworks, and a curated collection of work celebrating newly crowned King Charles III will also be on show in the giant marquee on Hampstead Heath.
This year's fair runs from May 11-14 and features thousands of prints, paintings, sculpture, ceramics, photography and collage shown by 100 galleries from 14 countries, with prices ranging from £50- £7,500.
Visitors can see work by emerging artists from across the capital's University of the Arts in the Made In Arts London showcase, as well as finalists for the prestigious Jackon's Painting Prize.
Those with deeper pockets can snap up an "affordable" £7,500 signed screenprint by Hirst from De Medicis Gallery, or a work by well-loved illustrator Blake through John Iddon Fine Art.
Artist David Bellingham has created a special series of irreverent thought-provoking installations which are dotted throughout the fair.
Under the title 'Everyone Play Together' the objects with text encourage viewers to see things from a fresh perspective.
Fair director and art expert Hugo Barclay said: "David Bellingham is one of art’s ‘best kept secrets’. My particular interest is the way he uses language, combinations of words and timing, and humour to ground us in the present and remind us that there is more to objects, place, colour, and - ultimately - life than what’s on the surface. Sprinkled across the fair, you’ll find pieces of David’s work that may stop you in your tracks, and make you ponder."
In the Director's Cut section, Barclay has singled out artists to watch including portrait painter Felicity Gill, book object sculptor Francois du Plessis, photographer Amanda Harman, and newly graduated Fion Hung Ching-Yan whose work, The Skeletons in the Closet, explores her ongoing family conflicts referencing a set of Chinese folktales called 24 Paragons of Filial Piety.
Barclay adds: "Supporting emerging artists is a huge part of what we do and something I am very passionate about. I’m really excited to see all the student and graduate artists represented by Made in Arts London at our Hampstead Fair!"

Among the Top Finds under £500 are prints by North London artist Maxine Gregson, who mixes vintage photographs with fresh imagery to create 'new realities'.
The fair's charity partner this year is West London-based Koestler Arts the UK’s leading art in prisons charity, which has helped thousands of people in the criminal justice system over its 60 years.
Works from the Koestler Arts award will be on sale, with funds going to support their mentoring scheme pairing ex-offenders with professionals across the creative industries.
The Koestler team said: "The people we support often struggle with low self-esteem and for most it’s a huge act of bravery to submit work to our annual competition, often not believing it has any value. Having their work recognised by the Affordable Art Fair and being able to showcase their own work alongside established artists and galleries will be hugely encouraging."
Refreshments on site include bars, cafes and foodtrucks, with tickets range from £10-£27 including a weekend family hour with scavenger hunts and creative activities, and summer lates with live DJ sets and complimentary drinks until 9pm.
Visitors can also enter a competition to win a night’s stay at art’otel London Battersea Power Station alongside a Spa treatment for two courtesy of JM Finn and art’otel.
Affordable Art Fair Hampstead runs May 11-14 at the Lower Fairground Site, Hampstead Heath.
