Meet : Marty’s performance of the legendary cartoon character Courage in Courage the Cowardly Dog has thrilled the hearts and minds of countless fans (young and old) over the last 24 years since it debuted on Cartoon Network in 1999 (it continues to air today on Boomerang and HBO Max).

Thompson which is currently burning up the film festival circuit! His television credits include parts on all three Law & Order series, Third Watch, Conviction, and most recently the hit show Blacklist. Marty absolutely loves meeting and connecting with his fans armed with his trademark frenetic energy which is as intense at the end of the day as at the beginning!

WHY ARE THERE MULTIPLE EVENTS DISPLAYING A SIMILAR EVENT WITH THE SAME DATES AND LOCATION? These are all the same event! We are limited in the amount of characters we can type in an event title. Since our event encompasses: Anime, Game, Horror, Marvel, DC, Disney, Star Wars, Alice in Wonderland, Harry Potter & Lord of the Rings, this is simply too long to put into an event title. To make it easier and in order to reach fans of each theme, we have created separate events for these themes but keep in mind, it is all the same event.

THIS EVENT SEEMS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE. HOW DO I KNOW THIS IS A LEGITIMATE EVENT? We encourage you to Google us at "amazing art expo" where you will see many updates, reviews, etc. We have over 51,000 followers on Facebook, 21,000 on Instagram and have been in business since 2016. We have hosted over 100 events during that time.

IS THIS EVENT COMPLETELY FREE? Yes, everyone is free to attend and no purchase is necessary.

HOW DO I GET AN AUTOGRAPH FROM THE VOICE ACTORS? Autographs may be purchased at the event (voice actor's booth) using cash, credit card or Apple Pay. Last Call for Voice Actor Autographs is Sunday at 4:30 pm. There will be other options as well to upgrade your signature to include larger prints, Funkos, swords, statues, quotes/doodles, voice/video recording, selfies, etc. Those prices will be determined at the event itself. You may bring to the event your own product(s) to be signed including print(s), Funkos, swords, etc. Remember, this is also a pop culture art expo and there will be lots of super cool prints relevant to the voice actor available to purchase at the event. We encourage you to take a look at the art show first before getting in line with the voice actors. If you plan to purchase autographs, we recommend you also purchase a VIP ticket since it allows you 1 hour early access to the voice actors before the doors open to the public, at which time the lines can get lengthy.

ARE KIDS ALLOWED? This event is 100% Kid & Stroller Friendly!

ARE YOU ACCEPTING VENDORS OR ARTISTS FOR THIS EVENT? We are not accepting any vendors for this event. If you are an artist interested in working with us at future events, you may submit examples of your work to [email protected].

IS THERE ANY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (A.I.) ART AT THIS EVENT? Absolutely NOT! All our art sold on our website and featured at our show was created by human hands and all made in the USA. We do not believe A.I. art is actually art and we stay firm with that decision.

IS PHOTOGRAPHY ALLOWED? You are welcome to photograph cosplayers, voice actors and the overall event and encouraged to share it with friends. However, Due to encounters of theft, attempts in converting the art via A.I. and/or unauthorized reproduction (bootlegging) of the artwork, our artists request no closeup photography of the art itself please. Out of respect for the artists, this rule is strictly enforced. All Amazing staff members would be happy to take a photo of the art for you in a manner where it cannot be reproduced so easily - just ask.

DO I HAVE TO COSPLAY TO ATTEND THE EVENT? No. Cosplaying is completely voluntary.

WHAT ARE THE GUIDELINES FOR THE COSPLAY CONTEST?
Cosplay Contests will take place approximately 3-4 pm on Saturday and Sunday.

1.) JUST SHOW UP: at least 1 hour before the scheduled contest! Upon arrival, say "hi" to our Amazing staff by the cash register and you're good! We will make an announcement 30 minutes before the contest to record names of all cosplayers and instructions as to how it will be run.

2.) AGE LIMITATIONS: All ages are applicable to win.

3.) COSTUMES must be creative. Out of respect for the cosplayers who put hours into their costumes, simply wearing a store bought costume, hat, shirt, sweatshirt, etc. does not qualify for the competition and this rule applies to children too. Just because your kids are cute, wearing Spiderman Pajamas, Tshirts or store bought costumers will not qualify them to enter. Winners will be judged on their interaction with attendees and the creativity of their costumes including makeup and handmade materials, personality - especially pertaining to depicting your cosplay character, handmade items, makeup etc. Costumes should be tasteful and not be deemed offensive. The barest minimum of body coverage would be that of a bikini.

4.) WEAPONS: All operational shooting weapons and/or sharp objects are absolutely forbidden. Non-firing toy weapons are allowed. Act responsibly and use caution when carrying, yielding, displaying large props. Any simulation of props, such as light saber battles, may be allowed if granted permission beforehand by an Amazing Art Expo crew member and if conducted in an open area free of bystanders.

5.) PHOTOS: Althought taking photos with guests is voluntary, cosplayers are not to charge guests for any photos. Photos should be taken in an open area so you are not blocking aisles or product displays. You are welcome to ask any Amazing Art Expo employee suggestions for such areas.

6.) Contestants may participate both days but are not eligible to win more than once with the same costume.

If you have any questions regarding our guidelines, please email [email protected]. See you there!
