Kids Con and Fandom Finale
Fandom Fest officially begins Friday, April 27 with Kids Con – because you’re never too young to be a fan! Join us for a kids-only day of crafts, costumes, games and more.
Then bring the whole family back on Saturday, April 28 for the main event – Fandom Finale! Whether it’s Marvel or manga, video games or Game of Thrones – we’re taking over the Library and celebrating all the fandoms. Meet our featured guests: four-time Eisner award-winning artist Gene Ha, and the authors of “Red, White, and Who: The Story of Doctor Who in America.” From panels to Artist Alley, games and trivia to crafts, it’ll be a day to gather and geek out with other fans. Costumes are highly encouraged!
