Art Show

Attention artists! We are still looking for people to submit art for this years Art Exhibit. Have your art displayed for exhibition and compete for prizes. Sign-up information can be found on the Art Exhibit page while more information can be found in the forum.

AnimeIowa would like to thank every artist who submitted their artwork into the Art Exhibition Show this year. We know that there were a few bumps along the way getting information out to everyone before the Convention this year. We apologize for that and hope to have things smoothed out and ready for next year’s Anime Iowa Art Exhibition Show.

“What’s this, there is a show again next year???”

Yes there will be a show next year, so start thinking of what art pieces you would like to submit ^_^

We are working on the 2013 Art Exhibition Contract already. We hope to have it out to the public with plenty of time to spread the word to everyone for the 2013 show!
