An amazing opportunity has dropped for the NZ artist community! ✨
As a proud member of the International Otaku Expo Association (IOEA), Overload has been invited to participate in World Doujins Paradise Hong Kong 2026 (WDPHK), taking place within Ani-com & Games Hong Kong (ACGHK) this July.
Through this opportunity, we are seeking two New Zealand-based artists to join an official Overload representative in Hong Kong. Selected artists will represent Aotearoa’s unique doujin talent as cultural ambassadors, connecting with creators from Hong Kong and around the world, with each receiving their own booth space to showcase and sell their work on a global stage.
If you possess convention experience, a compelling portfolio, and an admirable appetite for taking your work abroad, check your eligibility and submit your portfolio via the link on our website. Applications close Sunday, 17th May at 11:59 pm.
Overload NEEDS YOU! 🌟
