Q: Can I bring outside food/snacks?
A: You may bring outside food, drinks & drink containers. NO GLASS PRODUCTS OR ALCOHOL ALLOWED, though. Please throw away your trash. Changed for Halloween Bash, see above.Q: Is there in & out access?
A: Yes, after receiving your wristband you can come and go as often as you like for the duration of the event.Q: Can I bring my DSLR/take photos?
A: You're welcome to bring any high-quality camera you wish- however, no extra equipment such as lights, tripods, etc. unless you receive permission with a staff member first. Remember to ask for permission of any people you plan to take photos of! We want to make this not only a safe space, but a creative space! All we ask is that you tag @AnimeSocialDFW in your posts (Twitter, IG, FB).Q: What qualifies as a valid ID?
A: Anything that shows your picture, isn't expired, and shows your birth date. Sorry, no temporary paper IDs.Q: What kind of props can I bring?
A: All props are welcomed! Props will be safety checked at the door if they resemble any form of weapon, though.[ AIRSOFT NOTE ] No BBs allowed. You MUST follow all rules of firearm safety or you will be asked to put your prop up OR kicked out depending on the severity of the issue. If you are unsure of firearm safety please ask nitroidd (Johnny), our firearms enthusiast/expert! :)Q: Can we advertise our socials/shop/art/event etc?
A: Absolutely, we're all about helping each other out! All we ask is that you also promote us in some way as well by mentioning us. If your Discord message ratio of advertisements to messages are heavily based on advertising, we will kick you without warning at our discretion. NO PINGS OR MENTIONS.Can I bring flow equipment?
A: Unfortunately, we won't be able to allow flow equipment/hula-hoops, etc due to space constraints at this time. We'll change the rule if there's enough space in the future! Anything that doesn't take up movement space is fine.If you're at the event, you can advertise too! If we see excess litter though (from handouts, business cards, etc) we will be very unhappy.

Brief note:
Thank you again for considering vending with us! As of this time we are a smaller venue so we're very limited on space for our vendors. We can only fit 1-3 vendors per monthly event. We foresee that this event will grow quickly, but please give us some time to understand how we can expand the space to allow more vendors per event. We have plans in the works!Costs:
No charge to our selected vendors, as we truly believe in supporting the arts as part of Central Arts' mission. We would appreciate any donation at the end of the event, but it is not required!Vending environment:
- Indoor vending
- "Club-Like" environment (low lighting, loud music, ebb & flow of crowd density)
- Earplugs provided to vendors and patrons upon request to staff members.Selection process:
As of right now, we are keeping a track of vendors who reached out to us via spreadsheet, but the only completely fair way to bring on new vendors is by a lottery drawing. This may change at any time to another system-- when that happens we'll update this page.

Vendor requirements:
Our mission is to curate a safe, fun environment to celebrate Otaku culture, and to showcase local art & talent in DFW. This also means our vendors must also meet the criteria.You may NOT SELL OR DISPLAY the following merchandise:
- Any NSFW items.
- Any food, drink, or alcohol.
- Controversial merchandise.Vendors must:
- Not exceed past the table they chose (either 6ft x 2.5ft or 4ft x 2ft).
- Any taller displays must be secured carefully to prevent injury.During the event, if you do not meet criteria we will ask you to leave.How to apply:
Please reach out to [email protected] with the following:- Subject: ASDFW Vendor Application
- Table Size: <either 6ft x 2.5ft or 4ft x 2ft>
- All Contact Info: <social media, website, phone number, etc>Emphasis on making sure Subject is correct because we are using e-mail filters on our end to make it easier for our staff!
