The Crowne Plaza,
in Cherry Hill, New Jersey.
The Guest of Honor were Principal Speaker: Catherynne Valente,
Artist Guest of Honor Phil Foglio and
Fan Guest of Honor David Kyle.
There was a Steampunk Ball Friday night and the Masquerade (Costume/Cosplay Contest) Saturday evening. The convention had a diverse multi-track program panels, gaming, Anime, Art show and art and costume workshops
for both adults and children. There was some gaming and game displays located on the quiet side of the main lobby.
There was plenty of variety in the Dealer's room and an Art room with a range of 2D and 3D work.
The masquerade was smaller, and economically low tech, but with wonderful and fun costumes. Rob Himmelsbach was the masquerade
director with Electra Hammond as his assitant MD. Marcy Huston helped too, as did the NY/NJ and and Greater Delaware Costumers' Guilds.
The official masquerade photographer was the talented Ken Warren.
