Come see knights and ladies in regalia, marvel at the expert craftsmanship, laugh yourself silly at the humorous sketches, and help defeat the all-powerful Vile One! Panels and Workshops: Have questions about Science Fiction and Fantasy? Want to get involved in the industry, but don't know where to start?
