Art Show

The DemiCon Art Show is open to all interested artists and allows artists to share their work with our attendees while simultaneously promoting Fantasy and Science Fiction art by helping artists to display and sell their work.

The Art Show is divided in to several categories.

The art show consists of an exhibition floor, a print shop, and a combination auction and charity auction.

Convention attendees may purchase art at the auction or during exhibition and print shop hours.

Like many sci-fi & fantasy convention art shows, DemiCon’s art show is run entirely by volunteers. All convention attendees who visit the art show are asked to check their bags and drinks outside the door. Volunteers also help check in artists, set up artist displays, facilitate sales, and check out artists.

If you are looking for a quick and easy way to help out, consider signing up to be the Art Show volunteer. It is both fun and easy!

Art Show Hours for Convention Attendees:

The exhibition floor and the print shop will be open to convention attendees to view and purchase items:

• Friday, May 2 from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM
• Saturday, May 3 from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM
• Sunday, May 4 from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM

The auction/charity auction will be:

• Saturday, May 3 from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM

If you purchase any art you can pay for and pick it up from at the auction Saturday night, or on Sunday from 8AM to 12PM.

Information for Artists

The exhibition floor is limited to 20 items per artist.

The print shop is limited to 30 unique pieces, with up to 15 copies of each unique piece. I.E. If you place the maximum amount in the print shop you would be bringing 450 print copies of your art. You may display copies of print shop items in the exhibition area, but each displayed item counts against your limit of 20 exhibition items.

You may donate an unlimited number of items for the charity auction.

To ensure the art show is successful for everyone involved (artist, convention attendees, and volunteers), please pay careful attention to the following information.

Hours

Artist check in and artist check out will take place separately from when the exhibition floor and print shop are open to convention attendees.

If you, or an agent representing you, are planning to be there in person for check in and check out, and the listed times will not work, please email artshow@demicon.org to make alternate arraignments.

Sales

Print shop sales are handled on a cash-and-carry basis.

Unless you have listed an item as NOT FOR SALE, exhibition sales will be handled as follows:

• All items will start at the minimum bid price set by the artist.
• Convention attendees may bid on items until 5:00 PM on Saturday, May 3 at which time any item that has received three or more bids will go to auction. The auction price will start at the highest bid. Items with one or two bids will sell to the highest bidder without going to auction.
• At any time, if an item does not yet have any bids, then the item may be purchased outright for the quick sale amount without going to auction.
• Any item not sold by the close of the auction at 7:00 PM on Saturday, May 3 may be purchased as a quick sale on Sunday.

Types of art accepted

All art should be science fiction, fantasy, gaming or fannish in nature. We reserve the right to refuse any artwork that does not meet our guidelines.

Works may be original or prints, but they must be entirely the work of the artist whose name appears on the pieces. Resales, hand-colored copies of commercially available art, and similar copyright violations will not be accepted.

The exhibition area is where art is displayed to convention attendees. Gridwall for hanging pieces, as well as tables and floor space, will be provided. Items must be ready to display. We will not assemble frames, mount jewelry, etc.

The print shop contains pieces for immediate sale. Pieces in the print shop are usually prints or reproductions of published artwork (book covers or magazine illustrations).

Labeling and identifying your art

Every exhibit floor item must be clearly labeled with the following information:

• Artist name
• Piece title
• Minimum bid and quick sale price if item is for sale
• “Not for Sale” if item is not for sale

Every copy of every print shop item:

• Artist name

ConSuite

The ConSuite (aka Hospitality Suite) is on the 5th floor. Follow the signs when you exit the elevator. It is a place to refresh, rest, recharge and find quality banter to stimulate your senses.

The bar is well stocked, homebrew is tapped, and we also offer a small selection of non-alcoholic beverages. If you have suggestions for a particular concoction, be sure to bring your ideas to the ConSuite! We can’t guarantee anything, but we’ll certainly take all requests under consideration.

You can also expect to see such delicacies of the Fhannish world as fresh-popped popcorn, sweets & salty snacks, fruits, veggies, plus a few surprises. Be sure to find your way to the 5th floor from time to time (wearing your con badge, of course). While the companions you’ll find there are consistently delightful, the ConSuite’s yummy selections will vary throughout the day.

If you want to be a ConSuite Collaborator or if you’re feeling particularly generous, we’d be happy to help put that good feeling to use! Drop off your donations of cash or checks at the ConSuite. Everything will go towards making an even better spread, and we’ll let everyone know just how COOL you are!

Please note that the ConSuite will not be accepting donations of food or beverage at the con. If you wish to donate or have questions about sponsoring, please contact consuite@demicon.org.

Each adventurer has a bag of “tricks” to use as you travel the lands defeating enemies and collecting rewards while you quest for the Talisman. Can you succeed before time runs out?
• Dragonmaster – Saturday starting at 4 pm, 3 – 4 players (observers welcome). This is a classic fantasy card game from a previous century…literally. Published in 1981 Dragonmaster is a trick taking game. Players take turns being the Dragonmaster for five hands. Each hand has a different goal. Beware of the penalty cards. If you capture a trick with one of these, you’ll have to pay the Dragonmaster from your treasure of gems. The winner is the player with the most gems after all have had a turn as Dragonmaster.
• Libertalia: Winds of Galecrest – Saturday starting at 10 pm, 2 – 6 players (observers welcome). You command a sky ship and your own crew of sky pirates sailing the winds in search of adventure, treasure and glory. But beware you are not the only swashbucklers in the sky. Each day the fleet lands on a different island where you’ll send a crew member to collect your share of the loot. The player with the most treasure at the end of three voyages is the Admiral of the Air.
• Ta-Da!  – Sunday starting at 11 am, 2 –  6 players (observers welcome). In Ta-Da! you are competing in the annual Wizard’s Talent Show. An exciting event with skilled witches and wizards attending from far and wide. The game is played over a number of fast-paced, frantic rounds. Each player furiously rolls dice in an effort to collect the elements needed to cast their spell. With each roll, players can add one die to their spell, then must reroll the rest. As soon as they have completed their spell, they yell “Ta-da!” and they’re one step closer to winning the Talent Show. However, game-changing feats will be in play throughout the game, making players perform crazy acts as they play, such as making animal noises, keeping their elbows on the table, and more!

Room Parties on the 5th Floor

You can’t have DemiCon without room parties.

If you are new to DemiCon, you might not know what a room party is. On Friday and Saturday nights of the con, some of our attendees will host parties in their own fifth floor rooms (on the same level as the ConSuite).

Information for Party Hosts

Only rooms in the designated party area of the hotel will be allowed to hold parties. Please let us know if you wish to host a room party so that we can ensure your room will be located on the correct floor.  If you let us know which night you are holding your shin-dig, and the theme you’ve chosen for your revelry, we will post that information on this page.

Room parties are typically assigned to the ConSuite wing of the fifth floor of the hotel.

No room parties will be allowed outside of the designated area.

If you would like to host a room party, please read the below guidelines as well as our Drinking Policy. You must schedule your room party with the room party coordinator before the room block closes.

Room Party Sign-up

GUIDELINES FOR PARTY HOSTS:

When posting signage for your party please use blue painters tape and be mindful not to damage the room or its contents.
