One Sunday morning, as I was scanning my Facebook timeline, a certain event poster caught my eye. Quickly, I checked out the page and was so excited for it. It’s a convention involving stickers!
Sticker Con MNL happened on March 10 at the JYC Hall B of Bayanihan Center, Pasig. For an entrance fee of Php 100, the convention opened its doors to all sticker lovers and enthusiasts. It featured many local artists, from CassyKicks to TheIzzyPeasy. It is the first bazaar of its kind that focuses on this kind of medium of art.
It captivated sticker enthusiasts, hobbyists who use stickers for their craft, and pretty much anyone who’s ever experienced the fun and thrill of collecting stickers – both as a cherished childhood memory and as a longtime passion.
Spot PH interviewed the organizer of Sticker Con MNL, Grace Marcellana, who said that stickers brought a wave of nostalgia and reminded her of her childhood.

Two months before the convention, their Facebook page posted Exhibitor Spotlights which featured names and works of the artists who will be attending and selling merchandise at the event. For more information about these artists and their work, you may visit the event’s official Facebook page. https://www.facebook.com/stickerconmnl/
The sticker designs showcased anime, K-Pop, and even memes! There were also retro styles and pop culture. Each artist featured their skills and put their best stickers forward.
After Sticker Con MNL, this is the whole haul of sticker I bought.

There were also giveaways and prizes from raffles and contests. The grand prize for everyone who attended was a huge bag of stickers from all the exhibitors, the ultimate treasure box for all sticker lovers!
Sticker Con MNL was worth going to and spending money on even though I have used half of my allowance that week. Some said that there might be another convention like this, so stick around, grab your friends, and maybe even start your own sticker collection!//by Vea Dacumos
