Short Run Exhibitor Applications Open Now!

Exhibitor Applications Open! Full application here The window is open for 2 months, so please take your time, read every question, and attach your best links to your work. We're looking for first-time tablers, weirdos from far & beyond, and artists making unique work that looks like nothing else.  If you are a local or repeat exhibitor, please consider taking a year off if you do not have a new book to premiere. Help us keep the show fresh!  Please have reasonable expectations. It has become fairly hard to get accepted to our festival due to the number of applications we receive, the size of our venue, and tight curation. Luckily, there are more comic/zine/art book fests & fairs than ever before.  We will plan a whole weekend of comic events; there's many ways to participate in Short Run weekend. Even if you do not have a table space, show up to celebrate small press comics in Seattle!  Special Guests will be announced on July 10th!  Short Run will be present at this awesome, outdoor, mid-year comics & music fair! We'll be premiering TWO new anthologies and selling a limited edition run of our fest poster by M. Yaxam!  Visit Paper Pushers Pop-Op! New small press shop in downtown Seattle, 1200 5th Ave. (the lobby of the former IBM building). Take the light rail to the University stop.
