You may mail the form and payment to Balticon or you may apply for a 6 by 6 foot table area using the online Dealer Registration form.

Artists

Balticon’s Artist Alley is a place for artists to meet the public and interact with their fans. It is a place to demonstrate your artistic techniques and sell your original art: both originals and prints. Tables are curated so that we can offer fans a wide range of talented artists’ offerings.

Artist Alley is located in an open public space, and cannot be secured. Artists are responsible for their art and other possessions, and must remove everything from their space, or secure it in some way when they leave each day. Balticon is not responsible for items lost or stolen from Artist Alley. If you wish to exhibit your art but don’t want to be present the entire time, please consider registering for the Art Show. If you have art that you’d like to exhibit in the Art Show, and you want to participate in Artist Alley, please consider registering for both. Applications are still being accepted.

AT THIS TIME, ARTIST ALLEY WILL NOT ACCEPT ART WITH AI-GENERATED CONTENT OF ANY KIND.

To register for an Artist Alley table:

  • Create a new account in the Vendor Portal*.
  • Update your profile with a URL where we can preview your art, as well as a description of your art.
  • Request your Artist Alley table.
  • When your registration has been accepted, make your payment online.

* The Vendor Portal is our online site for artists and vendors to register for the Artist Alley and Dealer Room. Through it, you can manage your personal information and make the payment for your registration.
