Don your papier-mache wings and apply your glitter eye shadow gentle beings, because FaerieCon is taking place today through Sunday at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Philadelphia. What’s FaerieCon you ask?
Faericon brings magic of Faerieworlds, the West Coast’s premiere mythic music festival, to the East Coast. Array yourself in your most beautiful faerie finery, don your wings, gather your friends and family and cross the threshold! Once inside, you will find the largest gathering of faerie artists and authors in the world who look forward to meeting you, amazing, magical apparel, beautiful jewelry, mysterious masks, handmade crafts, fashion shows, performers, musicians, storytellers, exhibitions, panel and workshops.
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
A number of comic-related folks will be on hand during the show, including Wendy Pini, Charles Vess and Good Neighbors co-creator Holly Black. All three will be sitting on a panel at 11 a.m. Sunday on “Faeries in Graphic Novels.”
Other guests include artists Alan Lee, Brian Froud and Linda Ravenscroft. For more information about times, tickets and so forth, consult the con’s offical Web page.
