Edit May 7, 2012 : Table spots are now full! If you would still like a table you may still fill out our online form and you will be put onto our waitlist. If someone drops out you will be contacted for a chance to have a spot in our artist alley, thank you everyone for your interest I think this is the fastest animethon has ever sold out of artist alley tables!

Edit May 5, 2012 : Confirmation e-mails have been sent to everyone that has correctly filled out our online form before today! If you have not received a e-mail that has a big wall of text and further instructions, please check your junk folder as it might have ended up in there. Again please read the instruction carefully! Also I will be away from May 18th to May 30th, so you will not get a response from me during that time period.

Edit: Animethon 19 Artist Alley is now OPEN!! Fill out our online form before spots fill up, also remember to read everything before asking questions! : [link]

Edit 2: Over half the spots for tables have been taken! Note this DOES NOT MEAN you are confirmed for a table but those who have sent in a form have a spot, please expect a confirmation e-mail from me within the next 3 weeks for more instructions! DO NOT SEND ME YOUR CONTRACT



Hello artists! I know this is the information you've all been waiting for and finally here it is! I'd like to introduce myself as the new artist alley coordinator for Animethon 19, I'm looking forward to working with all of you and if you have any questions feel free to ask~
PS. Sorry for this appearing in your inbox 3 times! It kept giving an error so I thought it didn't go through


Overview
Artist Alley is where various (mostly local) artists come to sell their own merchandise and art of varying styles and mediums.

Regular attendees will note a major change with Artist Alley has occurred.

This year the Animethon 19 Artist Alley will be on a flat-rate table fee as opposed to a ticket system like previous years.

Attendees should note that all transactions inside the Alley will be cash; likewise perspective artists should note that they will be entirely responsible for managing their own cash float as well as bringing enough change.

For those interested in obtaining a table in the Artist Alley there is additional information below.


Hours of Operation:
Saturday, August 11 from 9:30AM to 8:00PM.
Sunday, August 12 from 9:30AM to 4:00PM.


Signup for Artist Alley:
Those interested in signing up for Artist Alley should take care to read over all the following details. THERE ARE MAJOR CHANGES FROM PREVIOUS YEARS!

1. The online form must be filled out to request a table(s). A link to the online form will appear on this page on Saturday, April 14th at 9PM Mountain Standard Time. (DO NOT SEND US ANYTHING BEFORE THE SPECIFIED DATE AND TIME AS IT WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED)

2. A confirmation e-mail with the list of artists and further instructions will be sent to you within 3 weeks (provided tables are still available).

3. After you receive your confirmation, you have 3 weeks to send payment (PayPal, money order or cheque) and a signed contract form (below) to us for you and your assistant (by mail or scanned and e-mailed).

4. Once payment and the forms are received, final confirmation will be send via e-mail.

NOTE: DO NOT SEND CONTRACT OR PAYMENT BEFORE RECEIVING AN EMAIL CONFIRMATION FROM THE ARTIST ALLEY COORDINATOR.

FAILING TO FOLLOW THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS WILL NOT GUARANTEE YOU A TABLE IN ARTIST ALLEY. NO EXCEPTIONS.



Contract:
Here is the Artist Alley Contract, it provides all the details for this year. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY


FAQ:
How big are tables and how much?
Tables are 3 feet by 3 feet. Each table is a flat rate $40, GST included.

How does the second table work?
fter 2-3 weeks of application artists may request a second table. We don't guarantee there will be any tables left but if there are when we start assigning second tables we will assign them based on the order we receive applications. There is no fixed date when we will start assigning second tables; this will be done entirely at our discretion and may be done without notice.

What does the online form ask for?
Such things you will definitely need for the online form is your full name, DOB, e-mail, city, province/state, website(or ONE link to examples of what you'll be selling, not just a single image, but portfolio is greatly preferred). Only fields with a asterisk is required, all other information is optional!

Can I get power or internet at my Artist Alley table for debit or credit card transactions?
No. If you need debit or credit card transactions then please contact sales[at]animethon.org and inquire about a vendor booth. As of posting this update there are less than a dozen booths remaining. Artist Alley will be cash only for all transactions.

Why did you switch to flat-rate tables? I loved the ticket system!
It was decided to give a flat-rate table system a try at least one year. It's easier to estimate exactly what the net loss of running Artist Alley is to the event as well. This year we will almost break even!

Do I need a weekend pass to be an artist in artist alley?
No you do not, though you will be given an option to purchase a weekend pass for a discounted price along with your table on the online sign-up form if you wish.

Will our full legal name be used on the website/guidebook?
No, your legal name is noted to be kept confidential. However there is a spot for nickname or alias for artists on the form and this is what we would use first unless you leave it blank (the contract only says "Artist name" and not your legal name).

I have a question about _____, who do I ask?
Please direct all questions relating to Artist Alley to the Artist Alley Coordinator. artistalley[at]animethon.org or leave a comment

A weird question: Will there be an art auction this year for Animethon 19? I have some stuff I'd submit. Haven't seen anything about it on the site, so any insight I can get would be helpful :)

The art auction is part of the art gallery and we had nobody come up saying they would like to organize the art gallery this year, so we decided not to have it as nobody is complaining.

that information is not actually up and available yet, and will not be available until closer to the convention date.

I believe Taste of Animethon is coming up soon though, and the best way to keep yourself updated is to go to Animethon's official website at: [link]
