Selection Process

To provide a great experience to attendees and artists alike we are looking for a diverse and high quality selection of artists and creators to populate our artists alley. For this, our process will be a curated selection and not a first-come, first-serve. With that in mind, feel free to take your time with the application as everyone will be reviewed equally by a jury.

Some things to help you stand out to our jury include but not limited to are:

Professional/Appealing Display

Displays that are well put together, easy to shop, and organized are appealing not only to customers but to the jury as well. Your display should be a reflection of your products and your work as a creator.

Strong variety of products

Varied product offerings can be seen as inclusive sizing, styles that cater to different demographics, unique skills/crafts, or niche interests. Highlight what you excel at and what makes you stand out.

Community engagement and fandom presence

Community engagement includes semi-regular posting and highlighting your art and other offerings. Closed shops, locked, or outdated social media accounts can make it hard for the jury to fully review your work.

Fandom presence includes a review of fandom history and reputation. ASC may deny an application if an artist has a history of negative behavior, either online or in person.
