They’re fun. They’re colorful. They’re nothing short of amazing. Lots of people are crazy about stickers, and it really was about time for an event about works of art that stick. That’s why artists, fans and the curious alike had much to be happy about at Sticky Expo, the biggest sticker event of the year that finally got to happen last September 18, 2022 at Function Room 3 of SMX Convention Center Manila. Everyone with a discerning eye for pop art or was just plain crazy about stickers was welcomed, with the entrance at only 60 pesos.
arkadymac.com is proud to be the media partner for the very first Sticky Expo. Helping us cover and bring the highlights of the event is our newest Correspondent Sabthulu, who ardently loves creativity and is an artist herself.
It took some time in the making because of the pandemic, but organizers of Sticky Expo rose to the challenge to make this sticky situation a reality. They even have their official mascot, Tiki, usher the guests in. Tiki is a great representation of what this fun, quirky and colorful event is all about.
Sticky Expo was organized by artists for fellow artists to showcase and sell their art works that stick. It got to feature fan art, pop culture references, and original artwork. Their level of creativity and dedication is astounding. With thousands of individual pieces of all sizes, colors and genres, attendees got their fill of small pieces of art they can take home, use and cherish, covering most if not all fandoms.

Art finds inspiration from humor too, and we certainly appreciate the lighthearted yet still very creative work they share with everyone. Even the names of their operations are creative and/or bring smiles to customers.
Although the main focus of the event is stickers, Sticky Expo also had other artwork that stick, like magnets, pop sockets and more, along with other crafts, collectibles and merch that are are no less fascinating and interesting. Lots of brilliant local artists have gathered to show their best work and skills at this event to the delight of attendees.
There was also the Sticker Mural where attendees and sticky artists stick in and fill up with anonymous messages, stickers, sticky notes, and anything that sticks!
Sticky Expo also got to be a cozy place to meet fellow artists at their booths who have time for a small chat about their work, their art, and would even hand out small samples of their art. All of them were friendly and proud of the work they do.
All in all, Sticky Expo is a cozy and friendly event that brought the fun and amazingly creative community of artists and sticker fans together for an enjoyable day. Our thanks and congratulations to the organizers for a successful event, and looking forward to the next edition.
Many thanks to our Correspondent Sab who got to enjoy covering this event with Tiki for our website.
