Heyo, any artists here that have done artist alley and are actively still doing it? I've recently gotten the mental strength and energy back to be able to consider trying to get a spot for 2026 but i'm like, a total dweeb and have no clue on where to start.
I found some manufacturers and such but ideally I'd like to get an idea by chatting with active artists in the community and maybe make some mutes????

you could reach out to people that where at last week con via instagram and such ! I think that's how you're gonna get the most infos and also checking forums online and such. I think talking with people is a great idea tho, knowing how they declare they're income related to art etc is also one thing to look at.
Actually yea Delta said their friend at their fav stand would probably not mind helping me out so we'll see where that goes !!1!

omg im going thru the same thing rn. me and my friend started a little vendor buisness and have just made an instagram and post what we make and plan to sell. many people post flyers for smaller artist alley events on instagram and you can find events near you that way. honestly i follow a lot of other vendors and usually they talk about what manufactures they use and stuff.
like actual alleys and where to go to find them isn't a huge issue it's more abt starting up / producing. Like i don't want to make idk how many chains and then not all sell and whatever, i just wanna see what's best to start off with. as well as like displays and stuff,,
