Calling all science fiction, fantasy, horror, media, and astronomical artists and fans!
We would like to cordially invite you to apply to be a part of the Dragon*Con 2004 Art Show. Dragon*Con is one of the largest annual Science Fiction and
Fantasy theme conventions in the world with an attendance of over 20,000 people. This year the Art Show, Artist Bazaar, Print Shop, and Digital Art Show will once again be located in the Atlanta Marriott Marquis. This location puts the Art Show in the middle of the convention and on the same floor as the exhibitor’s room and the autographs. The Dragon*Con 2004 Art Show is a very large and diverse event. Thousands of art buyers from around the country and around the world come to the show every year to buy the great works exhibited. It is a very active, exciting function with dynamic programming which gives the participating artist a high potential for large sales. We believe art is all about capturing new ideas in one form or another and showing the world the awesome creativity within these works.

The Dragon*Con 2003 Art Show was a huge success and once again sold out! We exhibited some amazing work from 244 artists from around the world, sold over 1600 pieces of artwork, and had 134 pieces go to voice auction with over 500 attendees registering for bid numbers. Artists from all over the world displayed artwork, continuing our world-class status in a 16,500 sq. ft chandeliered ballroom. The Art Show programming did extremely well. Check out the Dragon*Con 2003 Art Show Report which includes the list of participating artists, programming, lots of pictures and list of award winners.
