Karoshi-con, Apr 17, free

[KORfan]

Hey, we started a new anime convention out in DeKalb, Ill, on the campus of Northern Illinois University.  We'll have anime rooms, vendors& artists, video gaming, panels, and pachinko!  Best of all, it's free!  We're an hour west of Chicago, so if you're willing to drive, come on out and have fun with us on Saturday, April 17, 2010.  Get more information over here http://www.sa.niu.edu/anime/coninfo.html

Wish I could come.  I'll actually be in Chicago that weekend (I'm living in the Boston area these days), but I'll be at the big C2E2 show in Indy Island.  Sounds like a fun con, though.  Good luck with it!

Thanks.  We didn't know about C2E2 when we set the date for Karoshi-con.  I was hoping to reach out to some of the Chicago art community here.

But hey, if anyone finds that they aren't happy at C2E2, we're only an hour west!

Fair enough!  Good to know for next year, too.
