On September 19th, DutchieArts was part of the first edition of Sneakerzone, an event dedicated to sneakers and sneaker culture. I had the unique opportunity to help organize the event as part of my job, and as a surprise, my supervisor offered me a spot to showcase my art!
Since the opportunity came last minute, I had to quickly decide what to display and how to prepare. This was my first expo, so there was a lot to figure out in a short amount of time.
I decided to bring some of my artworks printed as posters, not necessarily to sell, but just to showcase. I also brought along some merchandise and thought it would be cool to do some live drawing at the event.
Despite my nerves, I had an amazing time. I talked to a lot of people, enjoyed the cool beats at the event, and even had a chat with Dutch Pop artist Brainpower who stopped by my stand.
Check out some pictures of my setup below. Due to Covid-19, we had to wear masks and maintain social distancing. We weren’t sure if the event would happen until the last minute, so I was grateful we could still make it work.
Overall, Sneakerzone was an incredible experience and a fantastic start to my journey in expos.
