This notice for anyone within a few hours drive of Washington DC.
On Saturday November 23 the Animation Art Collector's Club of Washington
will be holding its 9th Annual FREE Animation Art Show and Sale. Last year we
had 46 tables with exhibitors from as far North as Connecticut and as far South
as South Carolina. As of last week all but three tables were sold.
The show is over 90% Animation Art. This includes production, limited
edition, and seri cels. It also includes drawings, backgrounds, lithos, prints
and other artwork. Less than 10% is books, jewelry, and related items. There
are no toys, games, or plush.
Close to 50% of the items are Disney. There will be at least two
animators present and a raffle for various items (unknown at this time, but in
the past the raffle has included cels, books, glasses set, and other items).
Also there will be speakers.
The show is open to the public from 10:00 to 4:00. It will be at the
Howard Johnson Hotel, 5821 Richmond Highway, Alexandria, Virginia. This is at
the Southeast corner of the intersection of US-1 and the Capital Beltway
(I-95/I-495). This is the first interchange coming from Maryland, or the last
intergahnage on your way out of Virginia headed North on I-95.
If you want to stay overninght (Friday or Saturday) the hotel has a special
rate of $59 plus tax. Call
703-684-7200 for reservations and tell them you are
there for the AACCW show.
