Artist Ally
A fandom culture, artists & artisans market celebrating the creativity and passion that bring our favourite stories to life.
Hosted at Next Door Market & Event Space and Moongrazer crafts, this two-day event brings together illustrators, makers, designers, crafters, and creators whose work is inspired by the worlds we love — from cult classics and comics to fantasy, sci-fi, gaming, animation, and beyond.
Saturday May 30 & Sunday, May 31
11 am - 5 pm
Next Door Market & Event Space
955a Gladstone Ave, Ottawa
This is more than a market — it’s a space for fans and artists to connect offline, discover original art, shop handcrafted pieces, and support independent creators who transform fandom into tangible, beautiful work.
Expect prints, zines, handmade accessories, apparel, ceramics, collectables, and one-of-a-kind pieces that honour and reimagine beloved characters and universes.
Artist Ally centres creativity and collaboration — a place where artists uplift one another and fans feel seen. Whether you’re a lifelong collector, a casual fan, or simply curious, this market invites you to step into a world where art and fandom meet.
