Back for its 12th successful year is the Anime North Art Show!

With brilliant anime-themed artwork from budding prospective and professional artists alike, along with a beautiful display of kimono and costumes from years past, this is one show not to be missed! As well, we are proud to present the North American premiere of the artwork of Japanese designer and illustrator Yasushi Suzuki. Located in the Toronto Congress Centre, we have plenty of room to showcase these amazing pieces of 2-D and 3-D artwork. You can find brand-new displays, our special Print Shop, and even bid for your favourite piece in our Art Auction.

The artwork of Yasushi Suzuki appears courtesy of Flash Frame Omake and DrMaster Publications.
