About the application

PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE BLOCK OF TEXT BEFORE FILLING OUT THE FORM NOTE: 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, you can log back into eventeny and correct it up until judging begins. If you have trouble making corrections, please email us for assistance.  
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. We work hard to prevent too much overlap in product types and styles among artists chosen. Some preference is given to Colorado-based artists, but we welcome artists from all over the globe and try to have a balance of the two. A waiting list will be kept to fill spots that open up after initial selection. 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 around September 30, 2024 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. 

About the event

Colorado Anime Fest will return to the Denver Marriott Tech Center on March 21 - March 23, 2025. 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.
