Did you know that Escapade has an Art Show? Well, we do, and every year we are amazed by the array of unique art representing many different fannish loves. We set aside a room at the convention on Friday and Saturday to display and admire fanworks brought by the amazing talented and endlessly creative members of the Escapade community. We welcome all kinds of fan art: drawings, paintings, jewelry, photos, prints, crafts, and works that defy description!
On Sunday morning of the convention, art that has been marked as “for sale” and that has received at least three bids from interested buyers will be auctioned off. Our amazing auctioneer Shoshanna always puts on a fabulous and entertaining show, enjoyed both by serious art collectors and those who are just in it for the eye candy!
If you are a fanartist (or are willing to pretend to be one), please consider submitting a few pieces to the show! The more variety, the better!

The sad news is that after six amazing years NakedBee will not be running the art show. She made the art show so much fun and will be greatly missed. Instead you will have Barbana running it. Barbana has no idea what she’s doing but lack of knowledge has never stopped her before, and she did a great job running last year’s inaugural Fan Fair. (Stay tuned for more info on FanFair 2020!) You can ask her questions before the convention at artshow@escapadecon.net or barbanabarbana@gmail.com
During the convention, head to the Art Show Room during the hours listed in the program and either Barbana or the Art Show Staff will be able to help.
In the meantime, check out a selection of art from previous years at the Virtual Art Show:
