Convention appearances

Post by Stan Sakai »

Here's a list of upcoming conventions I will be a guest at. This information may be subject to change. I've also noted where one or more other family members will be in attendance.

November 21-23, 2003 Utopia, Mexico City (with family)

July 9-11, 2004 AnthroCon, Philadelphia (with family)

July 22-25, 2004 Comic-Con International: San Diego (with family)

November--Madrid, Spain (with Sharon) This one is not definite yet, but I've included it here because I know there are a few Spanish Dojo members.

I'll add on to this list, or post more information as it becomes available.

I'll be at the Cultural Impressions Craft Faire in Monterey Park, CA on November 1 from 10 to 12 am. It's held at the Langley Center. I'll be signing with Heritage Source, a mail order book company. Carolyn will ship books anywhere in the world, so this is a good place to order signed Usagi books for Christmas. I think there is still a link onto Heritage Source from the Dojo Homepage. With only a few exceptions, the books are cover price, plus the cost of shipping/insurance.

Not sure if he's already posted this... but Stan will be a guest at next year's APE Con. Got this info from the latest SD Comic Con report. APE 2004 will take place Feb 21-22 in San Francisco, CA. Looks like it will kick off the big 20th Anniversary of UY!

I might be willing to come up for APE, if Stan is going to be there!
If there's a few other Dojo members, how about meeting up for lunch or dinner or something?
It used to be you got into APE free with your San Diego Con badge from the previous year. Wonder if that still holds?

I saw Stans' listing and picture as Special Guest in the San D Comic Con mailer. :D

Any chance for visiting middle Europe? I don't say it has to be Poland (wishful thinking -_-;), but Germany? Denmark? I could (SOMEHOW) go and see You... Living in such a country sucks...

Mid-Ohio-Con?

Post by Revolver »

Hey Stan, any chance you'll make your way back to the Mid-Ohio-Con? Last time you were here was 2000. *hopeful wishing, spot on wall begging for another piece of Usagi art!*

I can't make it this year, as I will be in Madrid, Spain during Thanksgiving weekend. (I was in Mexico City last year). Maybe 2005, if I get an invite from Roger Price.
