MileHiCon Artist Invitation |
We are inviting you to participate in the Art Show at MileHiCon 39, October 26-28, 2007. To enter, please print our Artist Information Sheet with our Art Show rules (it's a .pdf), fill it out, and return it to us with a check.
When we receive your check and Artist Sheet, we will send you confirmation of your space, Art Control Sheets, Print Shop Control Sheets, and bid sheets (we will send spare bid sheets, in case you make mistakes or want to display more pieces). We have two styles of bid sheet - order as many of each type as you want. (Illustrations of each style are here. We recommend the horizontal style for 2-D pieces over 8 inches wide, and vertical for small 2-D pieces and most 3D). If you don't hear from us within 3 weeks of sending us your check, contact us at:|

October 1, 2007 is the deadline to reserve space, but we ran out of space last year, and expect to again this year. We suggest you reserve space early.
Panels (4'x4') and tables (6'x30") cost $15.00 each. Half panels or half tables are $8.00. We will automatically allow you one or two panels/tables; we must approve requests for more space. Larger spaces (for large sculptures or pieces over 4' wide) are available by special arrangement - call us. Space will be reserved in the order we receive payment (and not until we do). Make checks payable to MileHiCon, and send it to us at:
Cheryl A. Sundseth
1841 E. 84th Ave.
Thornton, CO 80229
It will take 3 written bids to send a piece to auction at this show.
We must receive mailed artwork by Tuesday, October 23, 2007. You can deliver your art in person on Friday, October 26th after 2:00pm, to the Hyatt Regency Denver Tech Center (off I-25 and Belleview). We plan to open the show by 7:00pm, so we prefer you bring art by 6:30, but we can receive art until 9:00pm. Or arrive early and help set up the Art Show (we start at 9:00am).
Art pick-up will be from 3:00pm - 5:00pm on Sunday, October 28th. If these times don't work for you, call or write and let us know.
Market Information
MileHiCon is a mid-size (~900 person) literary SF/fantasy convention. We sell more pieces under $50 than over. Good quality prints usually do well. Portraits of SF media figures seldom do. A sense of humor often helps. We’re not a big market for anime, furry, or game related art, but we usually sell a few pieces. Pieces are more likely to sell from the Art Show (display space) than the Print Shop.Last year, our sales were down, at $9,928 in the Art Show and $1,509 from the Print Shop. Detailed sales information is here (check it out).
Thank you for your interest in MileHiCon.
