Description
The New Britain Museum of American Art will be hosting its second Annual Fandom Fest! Come celebrate illustration and the world of Heroes vs. Villains. Engage your fantasies and geek out on everything fandom-vintage and new. This event is inspired by the Robert Lesser Collection of Pulp Art at the Museum.
The event will have live music, interactive entertainment, access to the Museum galleries, a photobooth, vendors selling comics, collectibles, and novelties, a cafe takeover, and cocktails inspired by fandom classics.
Volunteer shifts will be about 2 hours long to help with vendor load-in, decorating the space, check-in, etc.
