About the event

Colorado Anime Fest will return to the Denver Marriott Tech Center on March 10 - March 12, 2023. Colorado Anime Fest was founded in 2014 by a group of friends with decades of combined experience, having run dozens of events across the country. We held our first convention in February 2016. And we wouldn’t be where we are today without our amazing, dedicated staff. Colorado Anime Fest has donated $25,101 to local charities to date. We’re also a member of the Japan America Society of Colorado.

About the application

PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE BLOCK OF TEXT BEFORE FILLING OUT THE FORM NOTE:
 
We are looking for artists who will provide a fun and happy shopping experience for our convention members. If that's you, we'd love to see you at COAF 2023!
 
INSTRUCTIONS: Take a moment to read through all items on this form before initiating the process of filling it out. It is a good idea to copy your responses into a document so they don't get lost in the middle of filling out this form, just in case. All Vendors and artists are required to adhere to Colorado Anime Fest general rules, found here: https://coanimefest.com/policies/general-rules.
 
This Artist Application Form is NOT a guarantee you will be admitted as an Artist. This is merely an application—we'll evaluate all of the candidates and make a final, juried decision. If you need to change an answer to a question after you have submitted the form, please email us the correction. We believe in being open about the criteria of our juried selection process. Candidates will be evaluated based on the quality of artistry or craftsmanship, uniqueness and novelty of the product, and potential appeal to COAF attendees. A slight boost in score will be given to local Colorado artists. A waiting list will be kept in case spots open up later. Multiple waiting lists may be kept to maintain a wide variety of product types. Any questions or concerns about this process may be directed to artistsalley@coanimefest.com
 
Applicants will be notified by January 31, 2023 if they are accepted or waitlisted. Please do not contact us earlier, we receive hundreds of applications and the process takes a long time. You can view your application status and edit your application through Eventeny. Please only contact us if you have a problem or conflict. Thank you for your understanding.
