Artist Alley

Specifications
- Our focus: COMICS, COMICS COMICS <3
- We invite both Berliners and folks and projects outside of Berlin to take part. Basically, everyone is welcome!
- Half a table is also possible. Only publishers, large artist collectives and comic shops can book 2 tables, in limited quantity and in the Gallery. Individual tables are located in the atrium (Lichthof).
- No eating or drinking inside the museum. It’s a hard rule. There will be a food truck in the yard.
- Smut: From 18! The festival is for the whole family and the museum is very careful not to make content with sex and violence available to children. If your comics have such content, you’ll need to label them “+18+” and only let adults look at them. Also, if your cover already shows sex and violence, you have to cover the cover – otherwise the museum will really not be happy. Practically, this means we are not allowed to show any 18+ stuff, including prints and zine covers, but this can be sold discreetly at the festival.
Options / Prices
- 72€ per table for both days (Table size: 1,2 x 0,6 m)
One table comes with 1-2 chairs, only 2 people at a time - It’s possible to book a table for 1 or 2 days for 36€/day, however we strongly favor exhibitors who are available for the whole weekend. In case there are more applications than spots, those who applied for the whole weekend will have priority!
- Optional partition: We’re not allowed to hang anything on the columns or to attach strings, etc. anywhere in the museum. For this reason, we’re giving you the option of booking a cardboard partition that will stand behind your table. This can be used to put up posters, a sign or large prints. 30€ per partition for both days

As a comics festival, we also get a lot of applications from illustrators and designers who are somewhat active in the comics genre but don’t have any comic books or stories to sell. We’d like to remind applicants that we thoroughly check what you intend to sell at your table and will not accept applications that include selling “just” postcards or woolen hats knitted from comics pages.
Please read the CIB festival MANIFESTO before you apply!
Please note that we also follow the Berlin Code of Conduct.
