9 REASONS a convention is WORTH tabling | GalaxyCon SJ | Sticker Zoo Artist Alley Vlogs

Last week, we tackled a first-time show by the GalaxyCon team in San Jose, California... and the experience was... interesting? My friend Sean and I came up with 9 different factors that played a part into out experience for the long anime convention weekend. If you watched the entire video, let me know what you think about these variables. Was I missing any crucial components?

I'm an Asian American artist who just graduated from college and is trying to live their childhood dream of turning art into their career! I started my tabling journey 11 months ago, and it's been a wild ride so far! Join me as I learn how to navigate the Artist Alley world, learn new techniques to improve my little shop, share tips on my methods, and create more art to spread into the world! :D
