Calling all artists, doodlers, and fandom enthusiasts!

We’re putting together a fan art display and want your creations in the mix. Whether you’re into fantasy, sci-fi, anime, comics, games, or something wonderfully niche, this is your chance to show off what you love.

Artwork can be in any style or medium, as long as it’s no larger than A4. Please keep submissions library-appropriate . No nudity and appropriate language only (keep it PG, folks).

Drop your fan art into Hastings library by 27/04/26, with your name or artist handle if you’d like it credited. All skill levels welcome, if you love a fandom and made a thing about it, we want to see it.

Roll initiative, grab your pens, and let your fandom flag fly.

Suitable for all ages.

Children must be accompanied by a caregiver. We may take photos or video recording during events and programmes which may be used in Council promotional material.
