Lightbox Expo 2023 5 of 5 -- Set up and settings (updated 11.3.23)

2023 was the 5th year for LBX. 

Stuart Ng Books is one of the original exhibitors @lightboxexpo.

Stuart and his crew work hard starting Thursday to load in shelves and books to transform the blank space in to a resource center for artists and attendees. 

 The booth is a chance to speak with Stuart about books -- and meet artists at his booth for signings. The lists below are from the SNB weekly email newsletter. Stuart writes the newsletter himself. Sign up to get all the breaking news on SNB: https://stuartngbooks.com/join-our-mailing-list.html

You'll find SNB at LBX at this familiar spot -- booth 122 -- against the back wall of the exhibition hall. (upper left on the maps below)

SNB also provided the book stock and sales support staff for booth 921 -- the space for guest artist Peter de Seve. 

The LBX program guide...

includes maps of all the buildings for the Expo -- 

as well as instructions for the ticketing system to addend the highly-anticipated panels from industry pros..

 These instructions also appeared on the @lightboxexpo Instagram page prior to the show.

The Lightbox Expo You Tube channel has a number of video recaps of each year's show..

The exterior and interior of the exhibition hall was decorated with huge banners of art by artists who appear at the Expo and/or attend it. 

The reputation of this show as the convention to see and be seen at continues to grow. Attendee tickets sold out for Friday and Saturday this year. Book your hotel and tickets early! The location at the Pasadena Convention Center is lovely.
