Yes, you can bring a photocopy of the sales permit to the con and just give me a copy when you sign in  :)

Fanime has expressed to me that they would like the payment and contract mailed in before the convention.  So make sure you get those mailed in  :wink:

Thanks to everyone for their help in this thread.  I apologize for any inconvenience.  We are trying to work as hard as we can to get emails sent out.  The seating chart is going around, and don't worry, as long as you sent an email to the Colony before the March deadline you will be able to choose your seat.  

Thank you for your patience in this, I assure you we are working as hard as we can to rectify this.  I hope to catch up with emails early this week and have someone dedicated to this thread.

My apologies for the delay in emails.  I've been trying to sort through stuff as best as I can.  I will try and email something out this week.

Sorry for the lateness in the setup of this, there were some issues that needed to be worked out.

If you have any questions feel free to email us :)

You will only need a temporary permit for the days of the convention.
The preferred address is your permanent address.
The contracts will be emailed to you when you're signed up.  I am currently working to see if I can get a link put up for it. :)
A sales permit is requered for any kind of money transaction in the state of CA.

Hopefully this answered some of your questions :)

We're just about there!!

Just a reminder that check in for AC is from 10 to noon on each day.  You don't have to check in each day, but you do have to check in initially.  If you do not check in before noon your table may be used for that day, but if you have checked in your table will be reserved for the remainder of the convention.

Hope to see you there!





Thank you for all your patience in this transition time.  We are going through some changes in the Artist Colony, and appreciate your patience in this.

Please, if you have not done so already, get the contract and payment sent in to the FanimeCon address postmarked on or before Thursday 5/17/07.  Please note that if you do not send in your payment and contract there will be a $5 registration fee if you do not send in your payment. If you can send a copy of your seller's permit that would be much appreciated as well.  

Please make Checks or Money orders out to: Anime Resource Group
FanimeCon 2007
798 Auzerais Avenue
San Jose, CA 95126

If you have already sent your contract and payment in then you are all set! You can submit a copy of your seller's permit the day of the convention.

Announcements:

Checkin will be open until noon Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.  Everyone must check in and receive a packet to get a table.  You will only need to check in once and your table will be reserved for the remainder of the convention.  If you do not check in before noon your table will become available for that day to another person.  Don't worry, if you do not check in on Friday, you will still be able to check in on Saturday and Sunday for your table.


We apologize that some of the email addresses we have received have been incorrect, if you have not received an email notification today 5/15/07 please make sure that you send your correct email address to:

[email protected]

_______________________________________________________________





Currently the artist tables are full.  We may have a daily rate for tables that are available during the convention.  If you not received a confirmation email you won't be gauranteed a table.  We will however put you onto a waiting list for tables that become available at the convention.
If you are planning on selling at FanimeCon you will need to have a sellers permit available through the State Board of Equalization (see below).



Where is the Artist Colony?

The Exhibit Hall will have set hours of operation.  The tentative hours of operation will be 10 to 7, but are subject to change.  As we get closer to the convention we will set a more rigid timeframe.
Due to circumstances last year, we suggest that you remove anything of value from the Artist Colony.  We are not liable for stolen or damaged merchandise.

How much is it this year?

This year the fee for the Colony will be $10 per table before the con, and $20 per table at the door.  Powered tables will not be available to you.  If you need power for any reason please contact Artist Colony staff to see if something can be done.

What do I need to participate in the Artist Colony?

To have a table at the Artist Colony you must have:

A full convention pass (http://www.fanime.com/registration/ )
A completed contract*
A valid sales permit** ( http://www.boe.ca.gov/info/reg.htm#sales)
Fee for Artist Colony table


* The Artist Colony contract must be signed and mailed in with your payment.
** You must be over the age of 18 to apply for a sales permit, or you must be at least 15 to be an employee of the permit holder.

Please mail a photocopy of the above information to the address below before April 30th.

Artist Colony Rules (in addition to the contract rules)

If you are in violation of any of the rules below, FanimeCon reserves the right to revoke your Artist Colony table privileges and convention pass without a refund.

Note: Rules are subject to change, well will hopefully have a full list of rules the end of March

1.      Please stay only with your assigned seat for the convention.  If you require another table at the convention please see Artist Colony management.

2.      Verbal or material damage between artists will not be tolerated and could result in expulsion from the convention.

3.      Securing art to the convention table, walls, or chairs is prohibited.  If you wish to secure your art to your table, we suggest that you purchase a tablecloth.

4.      Your table number must be visible at all times.

5.      The convention is not liable for stolen or lost goods.  The doors will be locked and secured after hours, but this does not guarantee the security of your items.
