ONLINE REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED

This means you can no longer pre-register online or by mail. You will be able to register at the convention starting at 1pm on Thursday, June 2. All registration fees will be $5 higher.

For artists living in or near Albuquerque, if you don’t want to attend the whole convention, you can register for one day — Friday, Saturday or Sunday — at $55 per person per day.

Registration is not required to attend the Trade Show at any time on these three days.
