I will only be in attendance on Saturday the 11th from 10-8, but other than an artists panel from 3-4pm I should be manning my table for most of that day. I went to this con last year and loved it. It’s free to attend so if you want a chance to talk in person or see other awesome artists and stuff for free come on out Saturday Feb 11th and say hi!
