We are soooooo excited to announce our brand new big event: ILLO MART, a celebration of all things illustration and the amazing illustrators of our creative community. As fans of the many illustration fairs around the world, it has been our dream to do one of our own someday. Right now is that "someday".

Located indoors at downtown San José's South Hall at 435 South Market Street, San José, CA 95110. Open from 11 am to 6 pm. Free admission for attendees. Service animals only.
