Even though the convention and AA season is mostly over for 2025, it’s still good to keep in mind things that you might need at an artists’ alley. Perhaps you’re participating for the first time? Or you’d just really need a small checklist for your next event? We got you covered!
Here are some of the main things that you could need when participating at an AA:
- Water – this might be the most important, gotta stay hydrated🌊
- Snackies, if allowed🍌
- Tape for taping prints/stickers/price labels etc.📃
- Scissors – these are always useful, you’ll never know when you need to cut more stickers or paper✂️
- Notebook/memo pad for keeping up with your sales or maybe future product ideas📝
- Storage for money. It would be ideal if it had multiple sections so you can keep coins separate🗃️
- Grid/panel connectors, just in case. You never know.
- Pencils/pens etc for writing, doodling or sending secret notes >:) ✏️
- Decorations for your table🎀
- Table cloth. Even though most conventions ask that you bring it, we’ll put it here just in case.✨
- Trash bag🗑️
- Extra power bank for charging your devices⚡️
We hope this list will be useful for you. If we missed something vital or if you have any more ideas, please let us know in the comments below!
