ARTIST COMPLIANCE
All vendors will obey federal, provincial and local laws and ordinances regarding the sale of material that, intentionally or unintentionally, infringes upon the trademarks or copyrights of another party.
Artist Alley vendors may only sell their own original artwork and creations. Artists cannot sell licensed or logo merchandise unless it can be considered "fan art." Fan art may take up a reasonable amount of the display space regardless of mediums. For each piece of fan art displayed you must also display an original piece of similar size. Artists must use personal discretion to use a limited number of duplicates in your display. When displaying fan art, artists must respect the source's trademarks. This includes but is not limited to avoiding things such as use of logos in their display, signage referring to the artwork by its series or signage referring to a character's name.
Celebrity likenesses are considered to be fan art. Items made using licensed fabrics or materials used under first sale doctrine are considered fan art. Items which fall under first sale doctrine may include but are not limited to stickers, comics, wall scrolls, and manga.
​
Adult material is restricted and may only be displayed in a manner approved by Northern Fan Con.
